UNSPSC 85542975 Drainage of right neck lymphatic with drainage device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, but the six recent opportunities posted under it in the past three months involve independent medical evaluations for public safety pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve drainage procedures or medical devices. State and local procurement officers appear to have tagged these opportunities with a clinical procedure code that does not reflect the actual services being solicited.

The geographic spread of these misaligned opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County), but the code itself shows no genuine market activity in drainage procedures or related medical devices for state and local government contracting. A firm evaluating this code should recognize it as inactive for procurement purposes and verify the correct commodity or family code if pursuing any of the opportunities listed above.
