UNSPSC 85531842: Extraction of right foot vein, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extraction of right foot 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 06DT3ZZ

UNSPSC 85531842 "Extraction of right foot vein, percutaneous approach" is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local opportunities posted under it. The solicitations tagged to this code involve occupational medical surveillance, disability medical record review and examinations, specialty surgical benefit programs, emergency and inpatient hospital services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve extraction of foot veins or any vascular extraction procedures. This mismatch suggests either a classification error in the tagging system or that the code is used by state and local procurement systems in a manner disconnected from its clinical definition. No recent opportunities reflect vascular extraction work or related procedural services.

Given the absence of relevant recent procurement activity aligned with the code's stated scope, practitioners pursuing this code should verify the classification methodology used by their target jurisdictions and consider whether the code name and actual buying patterns warrant separate research or outreach to procurement offices. The geographic and issuing-body data drawn from the posted opportunities (spanning Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington across cities, counties, and state departments) reflects the broader medical and health-services purchasing landscape rather than activity specific to this Commodity.
