UNSPSC 85534201: Restriction of esophageal vein, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to restriction of esophageal vein, percutaneous 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 06V33ZZ

UNSPSC 85534201 Restriction of esophageal vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code with minimal alignment to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific clinical procedure—percutaneous endovascular restriction of esophageal varices—yet the recent opportunities posted under this code do not solicit esophageal vein procedures, esophageal treatments, or procedure-specific clinical services. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code span occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefit administration, pharmacy benefit management, emergency and inpatient services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical roles. These are administrative healthcare services, benefit-plan functions, and staffing arrangements rather than the clinical procedure the code describes.

The issuing bodies are predominantly county health systems and government HR/procurement offices: the Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of the Washington State Ferries), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, the County of Santa Clara Health System, the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, and the City of Long Beach. Geographic representation includes Washington, Texas, Florida, California, and Arizona. Recent notices include the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026), the Phoenix Retirement Office independent medical evaluation services RFP (due October 16, 2026), the Long Beach surgical carve-out benefit program RFP (due October 7, 2026), and the Santa Clara Health System temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle RFP (due October 7, 2026). The code shows no relevant recent activity aligned to its procedural scope and appears to reflect a miscoding or administrative artifact rather than active procurement demand for esophageal vein restriction services in the state and local marketplace.
