This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction 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 06544ZZ

UNSPSC 85533878 Destruction of hepatic vein, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity in the source material. The code describes a specific clinical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under it involve occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, disability medical evaluations, surgical carve-out networks, and temporary ancillary health professional staffing — none of which involve hepatic vein destruction or percutaneous endoscopic interventions. This mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the UNSPSC assignment or that the code sees little relevant recent activity in state and local contracting.

The source reports no state and local solicitations for the procedure named in UNSPSC 85533878. The six opportunities posted under this code span occupational medicine examinations (Washington State Department of Transportation), independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations (City of Phoenix), pharmacy benefit administration (Collier County), surgical care networks (City of Long Beach), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and temporary clinical staffing pools (County of Santa Clara Health System). None of these scopes involve destruction of hepatic vein or endoscopic vascular intervention. Bidders evaluating this code should verify the UNSPSC assignment with the issuing jurisdiction before pursuit.
