UNSPSC 85532167: Excision of left lesser saphenous vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left 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 06BS4ZZ

UNSPSC 85532167, "Excision of left lesser saphenous vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach," is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this classification span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing pools, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve the specific vascular surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or that this code is being used as a catchall for medical services procurement rather than as a device-or-procedure-specific taxonomy. State and local governments posting under this code are mixing independent municipal pension boards, county health systems, state transportation departments, and county human resources divisions, indicating no coherent issuing-body pattern tied to the code's nominal scope.

The geographic distribution of recent activity spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (state department), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with no concentration evident. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services covering disability determinations for approximately 75 annual public safety pension applicants, due October 16, 2026, with a five-year maximum contract value of $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations, due October 9, 2026, with a two-year base term and five optional one-year extensions; and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFSQ (RFSQHHSFY270052) establishing a non-exclusive qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026. None of these solicitations involves the specific surgical procedure named in the code, and the code shows little relevant recent activity for firms specializing in that procedure.
