This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of right 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 05LD4CZ

UNSPSC 85524078 Occlusion of right cephalic vein with extraluminal device, 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 for vascular intervention, but the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical care management through centers of excellence, and emergency medical services for detained youth. These solicitations address administrative health services, benefits procurement, and workforce staffing — not the vascular intervention procedure the code name denotes. The mismatch suggests either classification error in the state and local procurement systems posting these opportunities or systematic miscoding of health services contracts at the commodity level.

The recent opportunities span multiple issuing bodies across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluations for disability pensions, RFP due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit carve-out for PPO plan, RFP due October 7, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (occupational medical surveillance, RFP due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference scheduled August 31, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, RFI due September 25, 2026); Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management services, historical spend approximately $8.7 million annually, RFP due April 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing pool across 13 ancillary clinical categories, RFQ due October 7, 2026, multiple award). Given the commodity code's actual scope does not reflect the opportunities posted under it, firms should verify coding accuracy with issuing bodies before pursuing work under this designation.
