UNSPSC 85531566: Excision of right foot vein, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of right foot 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 06BT0ZZ

UNSPSC 85531566 Excision of right foot vein, open approach (Commodity) does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually buying under this code. Recent solicitations show no procurement activity aligned with surgical vein excision procedures; instead, the code appears to be incorrectly applied to employee health benefit administration, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention medical services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involves operative vascular surgery. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual recent procurement suggests this Commodity code either receives minimal or misclassified activity within state and local procurement channels.

The six recent opportunities posted since July 2026 span diverse issuing bodies including city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal employee benefits programs (Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county human resources divisions (Collier County), and regional health systems (Santa Clara County). These solicitations address medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out networks, occupational health surveillance, detention facility healthcare, pharmacy administration, and temporary clinical staffing — a divergence so broad that the code's original nomenclature provides no practical guidance for business development. No state or local procurement activity under this code aligns with the surgical procedure named in the UNSPSC definition.
