This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of monitoring device from lower vein, external approach.

UNSPSC 85531011 Removal of monitoring device from lower vein, external approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The six state and local contract opportunities posted between July and August 2026 under this code do not align with the code's nominal scope of venous device removal. Instead, the opportunities center on medical staffing, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefits administration, surgical care networks, disability medical evaluations, and emergency services for detained youth — none of which involve the removal of monitoring devices from lower veins. The mismatch between code assignment and actual procurement scope suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or that this Commodity code does not represent active procurement volume in state and local markets.

The opportunities that do appear span diverse issuing bodies including a state department of transportation (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and probation departments (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County), city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), and municipal employee benefit programs (City of Long Beach), distributed across Washington, California, Florida, Arizona, and Texas. None of these solicitations require the specialized clinical capability this code nominally describes, and no issuing body has posted a second or repeat opportunity under the code in the recent-activity window. The code warrants close monitoring for activity realignment, but current posting patterns do not support active pursuit.
