UNSPSC 85533857: Dilation of hepatic vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of hepatic 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 06744ZZ

UNSPSC 85533857 (Dilation of hepatic vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach) is a Commodity code that does not match the actual work being solicited under it in recent state and local opportunities. The code describes a specific clinical procedure, but the recent solicitations tagged to it span independent medical evaluations for disability benefits, surgical procedure carve-out benefits, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve hepatic vein dilation or percutaneous endoscopic approaches. The mismatch suggests either classification error in the source data or use of the code as a catch-all for medical and healthcare procurement that falls outside its intended scope.

The recent opportunities show issuing bodies from multiple state and local jurisdictions: the City of Phoenix (Arizona), City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and Santa Clara County Health System (California). No single buyer dominates the code's recent activity. Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Texas, Florida, and Washington, with no clear concentration. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) and the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026). The source reveals no coherent procurement pattern under this code and suggests that either the code assignment is incorrect or the taxonomy does not meaningfully predict what state and local governments actually buy under this designation.
