This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of lesser omentum, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0D9T4ZZ

UNSPSC 85603233 Drainage of lesser omentum, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure within the scope of clinical medicine; however, the six recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code span medical evaluation services, health plan benefit administration, occupational health surveillance, youth detention healthcare coordination, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing placement — none of which involve drainage of the lesser omentum or percutaneous endoscopic procedures. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal employee health programs (Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation systems (Harris County), county human resources and benefits consortiums (Collier County), and regional health systems (Santa Clara County). This represents a mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited.

The geographic spread spans Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach, Collier County, Santa Clara County), Washington State, and Texas (Harris County). Recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office soliciting disability medical record summary and independent medical examination services (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach requesting surgical benefit carve-out network management for its Anthem PPO plan (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation seeking occupational medical surveillance services for ferry system workers across 14 Washington locations (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, with pre-bid conference August 31, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing (RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code's assignment to these opportunities appears inconsistent with its stated purpose, and practitioners should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before pursuing work in these categories.
