UNSPSC 85531617: Destruction of left foot vein, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of left 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 065V0ZZ

UNSPSC 85531617 Destruction of left foot vein, open approach is a Commodity code that sits within a surgical procedure taxonomy, yet recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code do not reflect the specific clinical procedure named. Instead, the code shows activity in occupational and disability medical evaluation services, employee health benefit program management, pharmacy benefit administration, and temporary clinical staffing—none of which align with the code's nominal scope of a specific surgical intervention. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office, Washington State Department of Transportation, County of Santa Clara Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and City of Long Beach have posted opportunities under or near this designation, but the work actually being solicited involves medical record review and summarization for pension disability determinations, occupational health surveillance across multiple worksites, health plan specialty procedure networks, pharmacy claims processing, clinical staffing placement, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. This mismatch suggests either a systematic tagging error within state and local procurement systems or that the code has been repurposed to aggregate health services procurement that does not correspond to its stated clinical definition.

The recent opportunities span Arizona, Washington, California, and Florida, with no clear geographic concentration. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP for ferry employees across 14 Washington locations (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), the City of Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out RFP for its Anthem PPO plan (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara's qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code shows no relevant recent activity and should be avoided unless procurement databases are corrected to reflect the actual clinical service or administrative health function being purchased.
