UNSPSC 85533443: Restriction of splenic vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of splenic vein, percutaneous endoscopic 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 06V14ZZ

UNSPSC 85533443 Restriction of splenic vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent solicitations in the block reflect occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-outs for employee health plans, and specialty medical services for youth in custody—none of which involve the splenic vein procedure named in the code. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in how state and local procurement offices have tagged these opportunities or a systematic misalignment between the UNSPSC definition and actual purchasing practice under this code number.

The source contains no recent opportunities that substantively address the code's nominal scope. Consequently, this code shows little relevant recent activity for firms pursuing work aligned with the splenic vein restriction procedure itself. Business development professionals should verify the actual UNSPSC code assignment through the issuing agency before pursuing any of the opportunities listed, as the procurement activities described—benefits administration, temporary staffing pools, occupational health compliance, and medical evaluations—belong to distinct commodity and service families within the health and human services procurement universe.
