UNSPSC 85502711: Drainage of left thyroid artery with drainage device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of left thyroid artery with drainage device, open 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 039V00Z

UNSPSC 85502711 Drainage of left thyroid artery with drainage device, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope — a highly specific surgical procedure — does not align with the recent opportunities posted under this classification. The six recent state and local solicitations tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluation services, surgical procedure carve-out networks, and youth detention healthcare — none of which concern thyroid artery drainage. The mismatch suggests either a data-tagging error in the posting systems or an overly broad application of medical procedure codes to general health services procurement.

The issuing bodies across these opportunities include county governments (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), and county health systems. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026, and the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026. Geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Given the misalignment between the code's stated scope and the actual work being solicited, this code does not provide reliable visibility into state and local demand for the specific procedure it names.
