UNSPSC 85532649: Extirpation of matter from inferior vena cava, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from inferior vena cava, open 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 06C00ZZ

UNSPSC 85532649 Extirpation of matter from inferior vena cava, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its clinical procedure scope. The six recent opportunities posted under this code—spanning Phoenix disability medical evaluations, Long Beach surgical benefits management, Washington State Ferries occupational health surveillance, Harris County juvenile detention medical services, Collier County pharmacy benefit management, and Santa Clara County temporary health professional staffing—are administrative healthcare purchasing, benefits program administration, and staffing vendor qualification, not surgical or interventional procedures. None solicits surgical instruments, implants, or operative services related to vena cava intervention or any procedure-specific capital equipment or supplies.

The code appears to have been applied incorrectly by the issuing jurisdictions or the data aggregator; the recent opportunities reflect how state and local procurement offices tag general healthcare contracting activity rather than discrete surgical services. No state, county, city, school district, or transit authority in the source is actively soliciting products or services that match the code's nominal scope. Buyers in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington are purchasing healthcare administration and staffing rather than the clinical interventions the code nominally represents, suggesting either systematic miscoding or a mismatch between UNSPSC taxonomy and how state and local procurement offices apply medical procedure codes in practice.
