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 009U3ZZ

UNSPSC 85471947 Drainage of spinal canal, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal medical procedure scope. The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 under this code do not involve spinal drainage procedures; instead, they solicit independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. The code-opportunity mismatch suggests this Commodity code is either misapplied in state and local procurement systems or used as a placeholder catch-all for health services that do not fit narrower taxonomies. State, county, and municipal health agencies, school districts, and special-purpose health systems are the primary issuing bodies in the recent record, but none are buying spinal canal drainage procedures or related procedural clinical services.

Recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP (RTMRFP26001) due October 16, 2026 for independent medical evaluation services to support disability benefit determinations; the City of Long Beach posted an RFP (HR26753) due October 7, 2026 for a surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit program covering knee, hip, orthopedic, shoulder, spine, heart, weight loss, and oncology; the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFP (RFP20260825) due October 9, 2026 for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department posted an RFI (071626BNM) due September 25, 2026 for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth; Collier County Board of County Commissioners posted an RFP (RFP 25-8414) for pharmacy benefit management services with historical annual spending of $8.7 million; and the County of Santa Clara Health System posted an RFQ (RFSQHHSFY270052) due October 7, 2026 to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. No procurements under this code match its stated procedural scope.
