This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of right basilic 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 059B4ZZ

UNSPSC 85524241 "Drainage of right basilic vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach" is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—does not match the work actually being solicited under this code by state and local jurisdictions. Recent opportunities posted by state and local buyers are instead requesting occupational health surveillance services, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical carve-out benefit programs for employee populations. None of these solicitations target the clinical procedure the code nominally describes.

The mismatch suggests that this code has been applied incorrectly to state and local solicitations, or the taxonomy assignment does not reflect actual procurement practice in this market segment. Vendors evaluating opportunities under UNSPSC 85524241 should confirm code accuracy with issuing bodies before pursuing; the recent activity captured here—including the City of Phoenix's $750,000 independent medical evaluation RFP (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026), the City of Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out RFP (due October 7, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing vehicle (due October 7, 2026)—does not represent opportunities to deliver the clinical service the code nominally identifies.
