This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of right common iliac 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 06BC3ZZ

UNSPSC 85533256 Excision of right common iliac vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure — bears no relation to the actual work state and local governments are procuring under this code designation. The recent opportunities posted under this UNSPSC are medical and health-related services, but none involve the procedure named in the code. Instead, state and local entities are using this code to solicit occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth. The code shows substantial mismatch between its technical descriptor and real purchasing activity.

Recent opportunities originate from a mix of state departments, counties, cities, and special-purpose health districts across multiple regions. The Washington State Department of Transportation solicited occupational medical surveillance for ferry system employees across 14 Washington locations with a response date of October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office requested disability medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach sought surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits for city employees (due October 7, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (due September 25, 2026); Collier County Board of County Commissioners sought pharmacy benefit management services (due April 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The code does not meaningfully organize procurement in any of these categories and appears to be a cataloging error by the issuing entities rather than a legitimate taxonomy fit.
