UNSPSC 85533580: Repair inferior vena cava, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair inferior vena cava, 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 06Q04ZZ

UNSPSC 85533580 Repair inferior vena cava, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure involving percutaneous endoscopic repair of the inferior vena cava—does not align with the state and local opportunities tagged under it in the dataset. The recent solicitations posted under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical director services. None of these opportunities involve the specialized vascular surgery or endoscopic procedures the code describes.

The mismatch between code taxonomy and actual procurement scope suggests either a data-entry error in how state and local agencies tagged these opportunities or a fundamental misalignment between UNSPSC 85533580 and the categories state procurement systems are using to classify healthcare contracting. The issuing bodies posting under this code include county governments (Muscogee County in Georgia, Collier County in Florida, Monroe County in Florida, and San Mateo County in California) and a municipal fire department (Santa Monica), all engaged in general healthcare service procurement—benefit administration, primary care access, occupational health support, and medical leadership—rather than inpatient surgical services. No state-level healthcare agencies or regional surgical centers appear in the recent activity. Until state and local procurement systems realign how they tag these opportunities or this code sees activity genuinely tied to endovascular repair services, the code carries minimal signal for vendors focused on percutaneous vascular intervention.
