UNSPSC 85531843: Extraction of left lesser saphenous vein, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extraction of left lesser 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 06DS3ZZ

UNSPSC 85531843 Extraction of left lesser saphenous vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code's nominal medical-procedure scope does not align with the opportunities recently tagged under it in active state and local solicitations. The recent postings—covering independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—represent administrative and clinical support services, not surgical procedures on specific anatomical targets. None of these opportunities solicit extraction of the saphenous vein or related vascular interventions.

The mismatch between the code's procedural definition and the work actually being bought suggests either classification drift in the state and local systems tagging these opportunities or that this particular Commodity code does not reflect active procurement volume in the jurisdictions tracked. The issuing bodies in the recent records—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and County of Santa Clara Health System—are pursuing administrative health services, benefits management, and clinical staffing rather than surgical procedures. No pattern of repeat buyers or geographic concentration emerges under this code because the opportunities are fundamentally misaligned with its scope.
