UNSPSC 85524121: Excision of left brachial vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left brachial 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 05BA4ZZ

UNSPSC 85524121 Excision of left brachial vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal clinical procedure scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code do not involve vascular surgical procedures; instead they cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out networks through Centers of Excellence, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency and specialty medical services for youth in custody. None of these solicitations describe vein excision, percutaneous endoscopic approaches, or related vascular interventions. The mismatch suggests the code may have been applied to these opportunities in error or represents a data classification artifact rather than an active procurement category for state and local governments.

The geographic spread of the posted opportunities spans Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation), Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with no apparent concentration in any single jurisdiction or region. No recent opportunities in the tagged source actually solicit vascular surgical services, excision procedures, or endoscopic vein work. Procurement professionals evaluating this code should verify the UNSPSC classification in live solicitations before pursuing; the current record suggests the code is not actively used for state and local buys in its stated clinical specialty.
