UNSPSC 85822914: Measurement of venous flow, peripheral, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a measurement intervention or procedure to measurement of venous flow, peripheral, open approach. This measurement 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 4A04051

UNSPSC 85822914 Measurement of venous flow, peripheral, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—diagnostic measurement of peripheral venous circulation using open surgical approach—does not align with the state and local opportunities tagged under it in the recent posting record. The five most recent solicitations include comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county correctional facility, pharmacy benefit management for a county workforce and dependents, virtual primary and urgent care services for county employees, peer support services for mental health workers, and medical direction for a municipal fire department's EMS program. None of these opportunities entail venous flow measurement or peripheral vascular diagnostics. The mismatch between the code's narrow clinical definition and the breadth of primary and behavioral health contracting in the tagged opportunities suggests either systematic miscoding in the state and local procurement systems using this taxonomy or that the code is not actively used for the kinds of health services state and local governments are currently buying.

The recent opportunities appear concentrated in Florida (Collier County and Monroe County) and Georgia (Muscogee County), with single solicitations in California (San Mateo County) and California (Santa Monica Fire Department). Issuing bodies include county health departments, county commissioners' procurement divisions, county sheriffs' departments operating correctional facilities, and municipal fire departments. None of the posting summaries reference diagnostic vascular procedures, venous assessment equipment, or peripheral circulation measurement services. If the code does support active state and local procurement, that activity does not surface in the most recent opportunities available.
