UNSPSC 85621174 Drainage of bilateral carotid bodies with drainage device, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal medical procedure scope. The code's title describes a specific surgical intervention, yet the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not solicit surgical drainage procedures. Instead, the opportunities reflect health benefit administration, occupational medical surveillance, and staffing services — purchasing categories fundamentally misaligned with the code's procedural definition. The mismatch suggests either miscoding at point of entry or a data-integrity issue rather than an active market for the specific procedure the code names.

Recent opportunities appear across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington through diverse issuing bodies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (RFP for independent medical evaluation services, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach (RFP for surgical benefit carve-out management, due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (RFP for occupational medical surveillance, due October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (RFI for emergency and specialty medical services, due September 25, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (RFP for pharmacy benefit management, due April 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing, due October 7, 2026). None of these solicitations target drainage procedures or related surgical services; the code does not represent what state and local governments are actually buying at present under this taxonomy entry.
