UNSPSC 85531415: Restriction of left greater saphenous vein with extraluminal device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of left greater saphenous vein with extraluminal device, open 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 06VQ0CZ

UNSPSC 85531415, Restriction of left greater saphenous vein with extraluminal device, open approach, is a Commodity code that represents a specific surgical procedure for venous insufficiency treatment. However, the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code show no alignment with the code's nominal scope — the solicitations concern independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational health surveillance, youth detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these procurements involve the surgical implantation of venous devices or open vein-restriction procedures. The code appears to reflect a classification mismatch rather than active state and local demand for the procedure itself.

The opportunities that are tagged to this code originate from diverse issuing bodies: municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), city human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System), county departments (Harris County Juvenile Probation, Collier County), and local consortiums (Collier County Health Care Consortium). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. No pattern of repeat procurement under this code emerges from the recent opportunities, and no evidence supports active state and local market demand for the venous-device procedure named in the code. Procurement professionals should treat this code as inactive for practical business development purposes and verify the correct UNSPSC classification when pursuing healthcare-related state and local opportunities.
