UNSPSC 85533445: Restriction of splenic vein with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of splenic vein with extraluminal device, 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 06V14CZ

UNSPSC 85533445 Restriction of splenic vein with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure involving splenic vein restriction—does not align with any of the recent opportunities posted under this classification. The solicitations tagged to this code instead cover occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefit programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth. These services and benefits fall outside the procedural, device-specific scope the code purports to describe, indicating either a systematic tagging misalignment in the source data or minimal genuine procurement volume under the code's intended commodity classification.

State and local buyers appear to be using this code incorrectly or infrequently. The issuing bodies in the tagged opportunities—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System—are purchasing administrative health services, benefits management, and staffing support rather than a single medical procedure or device. Until the code is properly applied to actual splenic vein restriction procedure procurements, or the tagging is corrected, this classification offers little signal for business development professionals targeting state and local opportunities in medical device, surgical procedure, or hospital-based clinical services.
