UNSPSC 85531852: Extirpation of matter from right lesser saphenous vein, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right 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 06CR3ZZ

UNSPSC 85531852, Extirpation of matter from right lesser saphenous vein, percutaneous approach (Commodity), shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure on a named vein — does not align with the six recent state and local opportunities tagged under it. Those opportunities solicit independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-out programs and Centers of Excellence networks (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (County of Santa Clara). None of these solicitations describe or require saphenous vein procedures.

The mismatch between the code's procedural specificity and the actual scope of the recent opportunities suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or a data-entry error in the opportunity records themselves. The code does not reflect meaningful procurement activity under its stated definition. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for practical contracting purposes and verify directly with relevant state and local health systems, counties, and transit authorities if saphenous vein procedures or related vascular interventions are sourced through formal procurement channels in their target markets.
