UNSPSC 85532160: Extirpation of matter from right lesser saphenous vein, percutaneous endoscopic 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 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 06CR4ZZ

UNSPSC 85532160 Extirpation of matter from right lesser saphenous vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this tag. Recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension-benefit determinations, surgical and medical procedure carve-outs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty medical services for detained youth, and emergency medical care—none of which align with the code's narrow clinical procedure name. The issuing bodies include county health systems, municipal retirement offices, state transportation departments, county judicial and human services authorities, and regional health consortiums. This mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the source data or a state and local practice of applying procedure-specific UNSPSC codes to broader medical administration and staffing services.

Recent activity spans multiple states and includes Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting pension disability determinations with a maximum five-year value of $750,000 (due October 16, 2026), and the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefits carve-out management covering approximately 3,800 employees (due October 7, 2026). Santa Clara County Health System posted a qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026), and Collier County issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services with historical annual spending of approximately $8.7 million and a contract term through 2028 with two optional one-year renewals (due April 9, 2026). Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (due September 25, 2026). The code's application to state and local work appears inconsistent with its nominal definition and warrants verification against intended classification.
