UNSPSC 85573106: Revision of drainage device in diaphragm, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of drainage device in diaphragm, external 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 0BWTX0Z

UNSPSC 85573106, Revision of drainage device in diaphragm, external approach (Commodity), does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity associated with this code. The posted opportunities under this code involve independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, juvenile detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which concern revision of drainage devices or any procedural surgical intervention. The code appears to be a mislabeling artifact in the issuing jurisdictions' systems; recent activity suggests state and local bodies are instead purchasing healthcare administration, medical staffing, and insurance management services without regard to the nominal device-revision scope.

The recent opportunities span multiple issuing bodies and geographic regions without concentration. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona) issued an RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, with a $750,000 maximum over five years; the City of Long Beach (California) issued an RFP for surgical benefit carve-out program management due October 7, 2026; the Washington State Department of Transportation issued an RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas) issued an RFI for specialty and emergency medical services due September 25, 2026; Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services; and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California) issued a multiple-award qualification solicitation for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. This code shows no coherent recent procurement pattern and warrants investigation into whether the UNSPSC tagging reflects a data-entry error rather than genuine market activity in device revision.
