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 06VV0ZZ

UNSPSC 85531401 Restriction of left foot vein, open approach is a Commodity code that appears in state and local procurement records with little relevance to actual purchasing activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not involve vascular surgical procedures or the clinical intervention the code nominally describes. Instead, the tagged solicitations cover occupational medical surveillance services, independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, temporary health professional staffing placement, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which align with the specific procedural code for left foot vein restriction via open surgical approach. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the source system or an artifact of how state and local procurement offices apply UNSPSC codes to medical services contracts that do not map cleanly to procedure-specific taxonomy entries.

The issuing bodies in the recent opportunities block include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and municipal offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Because the code itself does not reflect the work actually being procured—and the clinical scope of the code does not match any of the recent opportunities—this code shows no actionable concentration of purchasing activity in the state and local market and warrants limited pursuit effort focused on the underlying service categories (occupational health, disability medical evaluation, benefits administration) rather than on the stated UNSPSC classification.
