This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from left greater saphenous vein, open approach.

UNSPSC 85531561 Extirpation of matter from left greater saphenous vein, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's technical medical-procedure nomenclature does not match the scope of work actually being solicited under it in the available opportunities. Recent postings tagged to this code reflect administrative and occupational health services—medical record summaries, pharmacy benefit administration, temporary health professional staffing, and occupational surveillance—rather than surgical procedures or vascular interventions. State and local issuing bodies posting under this code include county health systems, county boards of commissioners, city retirement offices, state transportation departments, and county juvenile probation departments.

Recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) covering disability medical record summary preparation and scheduling of independent medical examinations for approximately 75 annual public safety pension applications; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026); and the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence (HR26753, due October 7, 2026). Activity is concentrated in California, Washington, Arizona, and Florida, with no single jurisdiction dominating. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the administrative and occupational health services actually being purchased suggests either a data-entry error in the tagging or that this code is not the appropriate vehicle for pursuing state and local opportunities in this work category.
