UNSPSC 85533027: Restriction of portal vein with extraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of portal vein with extraluminal device, percutaneous 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 06V83CZ

UNSPSC 85533027 Restriction of portal vein with extraluminal device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity for state and local government procurement. The code nominally describes a specific invasive medical procedure — percutaneous placement of an extraluminal device to restrict portal vein flow — yet the six recent opportunities tagged under it span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit programs, and youth detention healthcare services. None of these solicitations involve portal vein restriction procedures or the interventional radiology capability the code describes.

The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or a data-classification artifact. The opportunities do reflect state and local health system purchasing — the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational health), Collier County (pharmacy benefits), Santa Clara County Health System (temporary clinical staffing), City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluations), City of Long Beach (surgical carve-out networks), and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (youth detention medical services) — but none align with the code's procedural scope. No active, relevant opportunities under this code are present in the current state and local market. Vendors pursuing state and local work in interventional radiology or vascular procedures should verify that opportunities are tagged with the correct UNSPSC code before investing RFP response effort.
