UNSPSC 85524111: Insertion of intraluminal device into right axillary vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of intraluminal device into right axillary 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 05H74DZ

UNSPSC 85524111 Insertion of intraluminal device into right axillary vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with state and local procurement activity. The recent solicitations tagged under this code—independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—represent health services administration and clinical staffing, not insertion of vascular access devices. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the state and local contracting activity shows no acquisition of that procedure or related medical device inventory.

State and local purchasing offices appear to have misapplied this UNSPSC code to a broad range of health services procurement that lies outside its intended scope. The issuing bodies—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System—span public safety pension administration, municipal employee benefits, state transportation, juvenile detention, county human resources, and regional health systems across Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. None of the recent opportunities solicit vascular devices, implantable medical equipment, or procedural supplies. Given the mismatch between the code definition and the actual work being bought, this code shows little relevant recent state and local activity and should be considered dormant for commercial opportunity assessment.
