UNSPSC 85533147: Release splenic vein, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release splenic vein, 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 06N13ZZ

UNSPSC 85533147 Release splenic vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code describes a specific clinical procedure — percutaneous release of the splenic vein — yet the recent opportunities tagged under it span inmate medical and pharmacy services, county pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical direction. None of these solicitations involve percutaneous vascular intervention or splenic vein procedures. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the source data or that the code is being applied to healthcare service contracts broadly rather than to the discrete procedural intervention its name denotes.

No state and local procurement activity directly soliciting splenic vein release procedures, percutaneous or otherwise, appears in the recent opportunities block. The geographic spread and issuing bodies — Muscogee County (Georgia), Collier County (Florida), Monroe County (Florida), San Mateo County (California), and Santa Monica (California) — are pursuing routine healthcare administration and medical direction services, not surgical or interventional vascular work. If your firm pursues clinical procedure codes under UNSPSC, this code warrants close examination for data accuracy before committing business development resources.
