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 0D9J4ZZ

UNSPSC 85601538 Drainage of appendix, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its clinical-procedure scope. The five most recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical director services — none of which involve drainage procedures or percutaneous endoscopic approaches. The mismatch suggests the code is either misapplied in state and local procurement systems or seldom used for procedures within its nominal clinical scope.

The geographic distribution of recent tagged opportunities includes Georgia (Muscogee County), Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), California (San Mateo County), and California (Santa Monica Fire Department), with no clear concentration in any single state or region. Because the opportunities do not reflect work actually performed under the code's clinical specification, this summary cannot reliably characterize the issuing-body mix, representative work scope, or procurement momentum for drainage-of-appendix procedures in state and local contracting. Firms evaluating this code should verify whether state and local health systems, correctional facilities, or hospital networks are actually soliciting endoscopic surgical services under this UNSPSC designation or whether the tagged records reflect coding errors in procurement systems.
