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 069N0ZZ

UNSPSC 85531585 Drainage of left femoral vein, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal name does not align with the state and local opportunities currently tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations, surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit programs, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these services involve surgical drainage of a femoral vein; the code appears to have been misapplied to a range of medical administration, occupational health, and employee health benefit services. The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Santa Clara County Health System), and cities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Purchasing spans disability retirement determinations, occupational health compliance, employee benefits administration, and clinical staffing for public health systems.

Recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 (maximum contract value $750,000 over five years); the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington ferry terminals due October 9, 2026; the City of Long Beach's RFP for a surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit program due October 7, 2026; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department's RFI for emergency and specialty medical services due September 25, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories due October 7, 2026. Geographic activity centers in Arizona, Washington, California, and Texas. The code's recent activity reflects a persistent misclassification issue that obscures genuine procurement demand for medical administration and employee health services across jurisdictions; prospective bidders should verify code alignment with specific opportunities before pursuing.
