UNSPSC 85533179: Occlusion of colic vein, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of colic 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 06L73ZZ

UNSPSC 85533179 Occlusion of colic vein, percutaneous approach (Commodity) does not align with the state and local procurement activity posted under this code. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance services for transportation workers, independent medical evaluations for public safety pension applicants, surgical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, and specialty medical examinations for health insurance plans. None of these solicitations concern vascular intervention or colic vein procedures; the code appears to be misapplied across a range of health administration, occupational health, and benefits management services that fall outside its nominal medical procedure scope.

The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), and cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), with activity concentrated in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington over the past two months. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance services RFP due October 9, 2026 (pre-bid conference August 31, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026 with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; and the City of Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out RFP due October 7, 2026 covering approximately 3,800 covered lives. Because the code's nominal scope bears no meaningful connection to the actual work being solicited, this code shows little actionable signal for vendors pursuing medical device or procedure-related contracts in state and local procurement.
