UNSPSC 85641317: Drainage of back subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of back subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open 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 0J970ZZ

UNSPSC 85641317 Drainage of back subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with state and local government procurement activity. The recent solicitations tagged under this code do not reflect surgical procedures; instead, they cover occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefits carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these represent the drainage of subcutaneous tissue and fascia that the code nominally describes, suggesting a classification mismatch between the code assignment and the actual scope of work being procured.

State and local government entities issuing under this code include county health systems, county boards of county commissioners, city retirement offices, state transportation departments, county juvenile probation departments, and municipal health insurance administrators across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The geographic spread spans the West Coast and Southeast, with recent activity from Santa Clara County, Collier County, the City of Phoenix, the City of Long Beach, Harris County, and the Washington State Department of Transportation. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's solicitation for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminal locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's request for independent medical evaluation services for pension disability applications totaling $750,000 over five years (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code shows no relevant recent procurement activity for the surgical procedure it nominally describes.
