UNSPSC 85534315: Occlusion of esophageal vein with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of esophageal vein with extraluminal device, 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 06L34CZ

UNSPSC 85534315 Occlusion of esophageal vein with extraluminal device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a clinical procedure — specifically an endoscopic intervention for esophageal varices — yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical record review and independent medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgical networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these solicitations involve esophageal vein occlusion procedures or related clinical interventions. The mismatch suggests systematic miscoding in the state and local systems tagging these opportunities rather than genuine demand for the procedure itself under this UNSPSC designation.

The issuing bodies posting under the code include a county health system (Santa Clara), county government (Collier County, Harris County), a city retirement office (Phoenix), a city municipal employee benefits program (Long Beach), and a state transportation agency (Washington State Department of Transportation). The geographic spread covers Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Because the opportunities are miscoded relative to the Commodity code's clinical scope, this code shows no meaningful market activity for the procedure it nominally describes and warrants skipping for business development targeting state and local medical device or clinical services contracting.
