UNSPSC 85531836: Insertion of infusion device into right greater saphenous vein, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of infusion device into right 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 06HP33Z

UNSPSC 85531836 Insertion of infusion device into right greater saphenous vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the six recent opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluation services, surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits for government employees, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing services. None of these solicitations involve the insertion of infusion devices into saphenous veins. The mismatch suggests either misclassification of opportunities by issuing bodies or a systematic data-coding error in the underlying records. The code shows no genuine state and local procurement activity aligned with its stated clinical scope.

No relevant procurement opportunities exist under this code for vein-access infusion device insertion or related medical device and supply services. State and local issuers appear to be tagging healthcare service and staffing contracts under this clinical procedure code, creating a category that does not reflect actual buying behavior. Vendors pursuing opportunities nominally listed under this code should verify the actual scope and UNSPSC coding during pre-bid review, as the code number does not predict the services being procured.
