UNSPSC 85532719 Drainage of colic vein, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The five most recently posted opportunities in the dataset — an inmate medical and pharmacy services contract from Columbus Consolidated Government, a pharmacy benefit management services RFP from Collier County, a virtual primary and urgent care services solicitation from Monroe County, a peer support program from San Mateo County, and a fire department medical director contract from Santa Monica Fire Department — involve healthcare administration, clinical service delivery, and medical direction, none of which align with surgical venous drainage procedures or the operative scope the code describes.

The code tier and nomenclature suggest a highly specialized surgical commodity tied to a specific open-approach vascular procedure, yet state and local purchasing offices do not typically procure individual surgical services or procedures through direct commodity codes. Health systems and correctional medical providers buying healthcare services under these codes select vendors to deliver comprehensive medical programs, not discrete surgical interventions. The mismatch between the code designation and actual state and local procurement activity indicates either miscoding in the underlying data or that this particular UNSPSC category does not represent an active procurement category for state and local buyers.
