UNSPSC 85531562: Extirpation of matter from right greater saphenous vein, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right greater 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 06CP0ZZ

UNSPSC 85531562 Extirpation of matter from right greater saphenous vein, open approach is a Commodity code that bears no meaningful relationship to the medical and health-related services state and local governments are actually soliciting today. The recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing pools, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, and emergency youth detention medical services — none of which involve vein procedures. This mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the state and local procurement systems posting these solicitations or a fundamental disconnect between the code's clinical-procedure name and how jurisdictions are tagging broader health administration and staffing work.

The issuing bodies include county health systems (Santa Clara), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), city retirement offices (Phoenix), cities (Long Beach), county government (Harris County, Collier County), and health departments. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no clear concentration in any single region. If business development professionals are evaluating this code as a procurement vehicle, the recent activity provides little signal — the code's nominal scope (a specific surgical procedure) does not match what is actually being bought, and the handful of health-administration and staffing opportunities appearing under it are likely tagged incorrectly rather than representing genuine demand for vein-procedure services at the state and local level.
