UNSPSC 85612219 Removal of drainage device from hepatobiliary duct, external approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities posted under or near this code span independent medical evaluations for public-safety pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out networks, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve hepatobiliary surgical procedures or drainage-device removal. The mismatch suggests that this code may have been applied erroneously to general healthcare service solicitations by issuing bodies, or that the code itself rarely reflects actual state and local procurement practice.

The recent opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies: city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal employee health programs (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county criminal-justice systems (Harris County, Collier County), county health systems (Santa Clara), and county benefits consortia. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, and Texas. No recent solicitations specifically target hepatobiliary surgical procedures, and no state or local buyer has posted an RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB for removal of drainage devices from hepatobiliary ducts. A business development professional evaluating this code should recognize it as inactive for state and local procurement purposes and redirect resources to health service delivery categories that align with actual buying patterns.
