UNSPSC 85533736: Extirpation of matter from right external iliac vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right external iliac 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 06CF4ZZ

UNSPSC 85533736 Extirpation of matter from right external iliac vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that state and local procurement offices have tagged to a set of medical and health-related services solicitations that bear no connection to the code's nominal medical procedure scope. The recent opportunities under this code actually buy occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for government employee health plans, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency/specialty care for detained youth—none of which involve the specific vascular intervention the code names. This appears to be a classification mismatch in state and local procurement systems rather than active procurement under the code's stated purpose.

The issuing bodies span state departments, counties, and municipalities across multiple states. The Washington State Department of Transportation solicited occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers with a pre-bid conference scheduled for August 31, 2026 and proposals due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office requested independent medical evaluation services for pension disability applications with proposals due October 16, 2026; the City of Long Beach issued an RFP for surgical benefit carve-out management with proposals due October 7, 2026; Collier County issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (proposals due April 9, 2026); the County of Santa Clara Health System solicited temporary health professional staffing (proposals due October 7, 2026); and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth (responses due September 25, 2026). Given the taxonomic mismatch between the code and the work actually being bought, this code shows little relevant recent activity for vendors in vascular intervention services.
