UNSPSC 85531311: Restriction of lower vein with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of lower 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 06VY4CZ

UNSPSC 85531311, Restriction of lower vein with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that designates a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show no alignment with the code's clinical scope. The opportunities posted under this code are administrative health services — independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employee health plans. None of these solicitations involve venous restriction devices or percutaneous endoscopic interventions. The mismatch suggests either a systematic coding error in how these opportunities were tagged or a data integrity issue in the UNSPSC classification system as applied by these issuing bodies. State and local procurement offices appear to have filed these health services opportunities under the wrong code tier entirely.

The issuing bodies posting under this code are cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), a county (Harris County, Collier County), a state transportation agency (Washington State Department of Transportation), and a county health system (Santa Clara County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (posted September 16, 2026; response due October 16, 2026) and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services to the Washington State Ferries (posted August 25, 2026; response due October 9, 2026). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Because the code's nominal scope does not match the work actually being solicited, the code signals little actionable procurement opportunity for vendors offering venous restriction devices or related interventional equipment and supplies.
