UNSPSC 85531622: Destruction of right greater saphenous vein, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of 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 065P0ZZ

UNSPSC 85531622 Destruction of right greater saphenous vein, open approach is a Commodity code that appears to capture a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows no alignment with that clinical taxonomy. The six most recent opportunities posted under or near this code span independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, surgical carve-out benefit programs for city employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve saphenous vein destruction or related vascular surgery; instead, they reflect administrative, occupational health, and clinical staffing services. The mismatch suggests either a data-tagging error in the procurement systems or that this Commodity code has been repurposed or misapplied at the state and local level to classify broader medical and health administration services rather than the specific surgical intervention its nominal title describes.

The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal health and benefits departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county health systems (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara Health System), and county departments of health and human services. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Washington State, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years and proposals due October 16, 2026; Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry locations with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026 and proposals due October 9, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFP for temporary health professional staffing, posted July 7, 2026 with proposals due October 7, 2026 under a non-exclusive multiple-award structure with no guaranteed work volume.
