UNSPSC 85533035: Restriction of superior mesenteric vein with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of superior mesenteric vein with intraluminal 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 06V53DZ

UNSPSC 85533035, Restriction of superior mesenteric vein with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach (Commodity), does not align with the state and local procurement activity tagged under it. Recent state and local opportunities posted under this code involve occupational and disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out programs for employees and retirees — none of which concern vascular interventional procedures or intraluminal devices. The code appears to be a clinical procedural classification that state and local procurement systems have misapplied to health administration and benefits management solicitations. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), county health systems (Santa Clara, Collier County), state transportation departments (Washington), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), and municipal human resources divisions (Long Beach).

Recent opportunities show no activity directly purchasing the vascular intervention service the code nominally describes. The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas, but this reflects the issuing bodies' administrative locations rather than concentration in the procedural service itself. The mismatch between code taxonomy and actual procurement scope makes this code unreliable for business development targeting — vendors of vascular interventional devices or services should not rely on this code's posting activity to identify genuine purchasing opportunities in their field, and firms pursuing state and local health administration contracts will find the code's nominal scope misleading.
