UNSPSC 85531552: Extraction of right lesser saphenous vein, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extraction of right lesser saphenous vein, 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 06DR0ZZ

UNSPSC 85531552 Extraction of right lesser saphenous vein, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent opportunities tagged under this classification do not involve vein extraction or surgical procedures. Instead, the posted solicitations cover occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Ferries), independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-out programs (City of Long Beach), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), temporary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara Health System), and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County). The mismatch between the code's clinical scope and the actual procurement activity suggests that the code either has been misapplied by issuing bodies or remains unused for its stated purpose in state and local contracting.

The geographic footprint of recent opportunities spans Washington, Arizona, California, and Texas, reflecting sporadic use across unrelated health-system and benefits-administration functions rather than concentrated activity in any particular jurisdiction or service line. No repeat issuers appear across the recent postings, and the opportunities themselves target different vendor pools—occupational health providers, medical evaluation networks, benefits consultants, pharmacy managers, clinical staffing firms, and hospital systems. Given the disconnect between the code's nominal description and the work actually being procured, this code does not represent an active or aligned procurement category for surgical or vascular services at the state and local level.
