This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left greater saphenous vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 06UQ4KZ

UNSPSC 85532037 Supplement left greater saphenous vein with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code do not align with the code's clinical scope. The opportunities present instead encompass occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability benefits, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth. None of these activities involve vascular surgery or tissue supplementation. The issuing bodies include state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), municipalities (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), and county health systems. The mix reflects routine state and local healthcare procurement across multiple jurisdiction types rather than a coherent commodity family.

The recent opportunities span Washington State (occupational medical surveillance), Arizona (disability medical evaluations), California (surgical benefit management, temporary staffing), Florida (pharmacy benefit management), and Texas (specialty medical services for youth detention). Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations with proposals due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations with proposals due October 16, 2026; and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 employees with a historical annual spend of $8.7 million. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated clinical definition, suggesting a tagging error or misalignment between the UNSPSC classification and the actual procurement activity.
