UNSPSC 85532644 Extirpation of matter from inferior mesenteric vein, open approach is a Commodity code with minimal recent relevance to state and local procurement activity. The code's medical-procedure nomenclature does not align with the work actually being solicited under it in the recent state and local opportunities block. Recent postings tagged to this code reflect administrative and clinical support services — independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefits carve-out programs — rather than the vascular surgical intervention the code nominally describes. These opportunities span health system administration, benefit program management, and occupational medicine oversight, none of which correspond to the procedural specificity implied by the UNSPSC label.

The issuing bodies include county health systems (Santa Clara), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county pension boards (Phoenix), municipal human resources departments (Long Beach), county commissioners (Collier County), and county juvenile justice agencies (Harris County), reflecting a mix of administrative, operational health, and benefits-focused buyers. Geographic activity includes Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (responses due October 9, 2026) covering baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry system locations, and the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP (responses due October 16, 2026) for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications. This code shows limited practical utility for vendors in its stated medical-procedure domain and appears to reflect a tagging misalignment between procurement notice systems and UNSPSC taxonomy.
