This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of left 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 067Q0ZZ

UNSPSC 85531609 Dilation of left greater saphenous vein, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this classification. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, specialty surgical networks for municipal employees, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve venous dilation procedures. The mismatch between the code's nominal medical-procedure scope and the actual procurement activity suggests either a systematic classification error in the source data or a divergence between UNSPSC taxonomy application and operational procurement practice at these issuing bodies.

The issuing bodies include a city retirement office (City of Phoenix), municipal health programs (City of Long Beach), a state transportation agency (Washington State Department of Transportation), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County), a county board of commissioners (Collier County), and a county health system (Santa Clara County). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), Washington State Ferries' occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's qualification vehicle for temporary ancillary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026). The lack of alignment between code definition and actual procurement content significantly reduces interpretive value for business development targeting.
