UNSPSC 85641850: Removal of reservoir from lower extremity subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of reservoir from lower extremity 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 0JPW0WZ

UNSPSC 85641850 Removal of reservoir from lower extremity subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open approach is a Commodity code with no recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its medical procedure scope. The six recent opportunities in the source block—disability medical evaluations for retirement-benefit applicants, surgical procedure carve-out benefits management, occupational medical surveillance, juvenile detention healthcare services, pharmacy benefit administration, and temporary health professional staffing—are administrative health-plan services, employee benefits management, and staffing placements rather than orthopedic or vascular surgical procedures. None involve procurement of the surgical removal of reservoirs from subcutaneous tissue and fascia.

The mismatch between the code's clinical procedure name and the actual buying activity suggests this code does not reflect how state and local governments currently classify healthcare procurement in public notices. Public-sector buyers appear to tag health-benefit administration, medical surveillance, and staffing services under broader health-services or administrative codes rather than under procedure-specific surgical codes. This code shows little decision-relevant recent activity for vendors pursuing state and local contracts.
