This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of left greater saphenous vein, percutaneous 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 06VQ3ZZ

UNSPSC 85531713 Restriction of left greater saphenous vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows a mismatch between its clinical procedure name and actual state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code involve occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, surgery benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which concern saphenous vein restriction procedures. The issuing bodies reflect a mix of state departments, county governments, and municipal health systems: the Washington State Department of Transportation (ferries division), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. This code does not reflect coherent procurement activity aligned with its clinical taxonomy name.

Recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The Washington State Department of Transportation's Washington State Ferries is soliciting occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations with a two-year initial term and optional five-year extension (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). The City of Phoenix Retirement Office seeks independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, with proposals due October 16, 2026 and a five-year contract valued at $750,000 (RTMRFP26001). The City of Long Beach is requesting proposals for a surgery benefit carve-out program offering knee, hip, orthopedic, shoulder, spine, heart, weight loss, and oncology procedures through Centers of Excellence, with contract start targeted for April 1, 2027 (HR26753, due October 7, 2026). Collier County is managing a pharmacy benefit management RFP with historical annual pharmacy spending of approximately $8.7 million (RFP 25-8414). The mismatch between code taxonomy and actual solicitation scope suggests this code may be miscategorized in these procurement records and warrants clarification with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities under it.
