UNSPSC 85524003: Restriction of left cephalic vein with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of left cephalic vein with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 05VF4CZ

UNSPSC 85524003 Restriction of left cephalic vein with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its clinical procedure scope. The six recent opportunities posted under this code — spanning independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, specialty and emergency medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — represent administrative healthcare contracting, benefits management, and clinical staffing functions rather than the specific vascular surgical intervention the code nominally describes. None of the opportunities solicit the restrictive device, percutaneous endoscopic procedure, or related clinical hardware or surgical services that the code's technical name implies.

The issuing bodies are geographically dispersed municipal, county, and state health systems — the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and County of Santa Clara Health System (California). No repeat buyers appear across the recent opportunities. The mismatch between code classification and actual scope suggests either taxonomy misapplication by the issuing offices or incidental tagging during benefits procurement activity. Business development professionals should verify code accuracy with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities under this code, as the nominal procedure scope is unlikely to align with future solicitations in state and local healthcare purchasing.
