UNSPSC 85534300: Principal veins chest and thorax, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This class includes one or more of 18 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the principal veins of the chest and thorax with percutaneous endoscopic approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 06.

UNSPSC 85534300 Principal veins chest and thorax, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Class code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 — independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits, occupational medical surveillance, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — are medical and healthcare administrative services that fall outside the scope of this procedural cardiovascular code. The code's nominal scope — percutaneous endoscopic procedures on principal veins in the chest and thorax — does not align with the diagnostic, administrative, or staffing services actually being solicited by state and local healthcare buyers under this code designation.

State and local procurement offices appear to have applied this code to administrative healthcare and staffing categories rather than to the specific procedural line item the code defines. Business development professionals should verify code assignment with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities listed under this code and monitor whether the tagging pattern persists or corrects in future solicitations.
