UNSPSC 85562022: Removal of drainage device from left ear, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of drainage device from left ear, 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 09PJ30Z

UNSPSC 85562022 Removal of drainage device from left ear, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's clinical specificity—a surgical procedure to remove a drainage device from the ear via percutaneous approach—does not match the six recent opportunities posted under this classification.

Recent solicitations tagged to this code instead reflect healthcare management, occupational health, and pharmacy benefit services that fall outside otologic surgical procedures. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations; the City of Long Beach sought a surgical carve-out benefit program manager; the Washington State Department of Transportation requested occupational medical surveillance services; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth; Collier County sought pharmacy benefit management services; and Santa Clara County Health System requested a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. The issuing bodies span state agencies, counties, and municipal retirement systems across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Given the absence of recent opportunities for the specific drainage-device removal procedure and the consistent mismatch between the code's clinical title and actual procurement scope, this code shows little relevant recent activity for business development targeting drainage-device removal services or related otologic surgical supply and equipment needs.
