UNSPSC 85531860: Excision of right lesser saphenous vein, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of 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 06BR3ZZ

UNSPSC 85531860 Excision of right lesser saphenous vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that nominal taxonomy describes as a specific surgical procedure, but state and local contract activity under this code does not align with the surgical work the code name suggests. Recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and Centers of Excellence carve-out programs — none of which involve saphenous vein excision or related vascular procedures. The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), primarily using RFP vehicles for multi-year service contracts. The mismatch between the Commodity code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either miscoding at the point of posting or that this code has become a miscellaneous catch-all for health and medical services not otherwise classified in the state and local procurement systems represented in the source material.

Geographic activity spans the Southwest (Arizona, Texas, Florida), California, and Pacific Northwest (Washington), with no single jurisdiction emerging as a repeat buyer under this code. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) covering disability medical record summary and physician examination scheduling at a $750,000 five-year maximum; Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026, pre-bid August 31); and Santa Clara County Health System's non-exclusive, multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The code shows recent activity but with no clear thematic coherence to actual procurement spend or category definition, limiting its utility as a signal for strategic business development in medical services procurement.
