UNSPSC 85531605: Dilation of left lesser saphenous vein, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of left 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 067S0ZZ

UNSPSC 85531605 Dilation of left lesser saphenous vein, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure on the venous system; however, the recent opportunities posted under this code do not align with surgical vein procedures. Instead, the tagged solicitations cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth. These activities fall outside the clinical scope of the code's name and suggest a significant mismatch between the code classification and the actual work being bought. State and local agencies posting under this code appear to be health systems, counties, and municipal retirement offices procuring healthcare administrative and staffing services rather than venous surgical procedures.

The geographic spread of recent activity spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County), with Florida (Collier County) also active. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations due October 9, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories due October 7, 2026. None of these opportunities involve the specific surgical procedure named in the code, indicating that vendors evaluating this code should verify actual procurement intent with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities tagged under it.
