UNSPSC 85532166: Excision of right foot vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of right foot 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 06BT4ZZ

UNSPSC 85532166 Excision of right foot vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal medical procedure scope. The six most recent state and local opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employee health plans, and pediatric medical services in detention settings — none of which concern vein excision procedures or match the code's clinical specificity. The mismatch suggests this code has been applied inconsistently or incorrectly to health services procurement that falls outside its intended taxonomy scope. State and local governments appear to be using this code to tag broad-spectrum health benefit administration, medical staffing, and occupational health contracting rather than the specific surgical procedure the code nominally describes.

The issuing bodies include city and county governments (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, County of Santa Clara Health System) and a state transportation agency (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries). Geographic concentration is modest, with recent activity in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a maximum five-year compensation of $750,000 (response due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFQ for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations with a two-year term and option to extend (response due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFP establishing a multiple-award qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across thirteen ancillary clinical categories (response due October 7, 2026). The code's current use in state and local procurement does not align with its taxonomy definition, signaling either systematic miscoding or abandonment of this specific commodity classification for actual health services procurement.
