This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of drainage device from upper vein, percutaneous 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 05PY30Z

UNSPSC 85522924 Removal of drainage device from upper vein, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code do not involve the drainage device procedure named in the code itself; instead, they reflect a broad mix of health plan administration, occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, and temporary clinical staffing services. State and local procurement offices are using this code to classify administrative and clinical services that fall outside its nominal procedural scope, suggesting either a classification mismatch in the underlying source data or a broad reinterpretation of the code's intent by issuing bodies.

The issuing bodies span county human-resources departments, municipal retirement offices, state transportation agencies, county probation departments, and county health systems across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the City of Long Beach's RFP (HR26753) for surgical-benefit carve-out services due October 7, 2026; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; and Santa Clara County Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle (RFSQHHSFY270052) for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. Given the substantial mismatch between the code's procedural description and the work actually being solicited, this code does not represent a reliable signal for pursuit of opportunities in percutaneous drainage-device removal.
