UNSPSC 85524076: Occlusion of right cephalic vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of right cephalic vein, 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 05LD4ZZ

UNSPSC 85524076 Occlusion of right cephalic vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-outs for government employees, and pediatric detention healthcare — none of which involve percutaneous endoscopic vein occlusion. The source material reveals a systematic mismatch: state and local procurement offices have tagged diverse healthcare administration and staffing services with a code designed for a discrete surgical intervention. This suggests the code is either misapplied in state and local systems or serves as a placeholder for miscellaneous healthcare commodities rather than representing genuine demand for the procedure it nominally describes.

The issuing bodies across these opportunities include county governments (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), municipalities (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), and a state transportation agency (Washington State Department of Transportation). The opportunities posted in recent weeks target administrative healthcare functions — medical record summarization for pension disability determinations, employee health plan administration, occupational health surveillance, and temporary clinical staffing placement — rather than surgical services. Without evidence of actual procurement demand for the specific procedure named in the code, pursue is not recommended for vendors offering endoscopic vascular surgery or related interventional services.
