This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of drainage device in head and neck subcutaneous tissue and fascia, external 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 0JWSX0Z

UNSPSC 85642506 Revision of drainage device in head and neck subcutaneous tissue and fascia, external approach is a Commodity code with minimal alignment to recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—surgical revision of drainage devices in head and neck tissue—does not match the work appearing in recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code. The recent opportunities are instead in occupational and disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out networks, and youth detention healthcare, none of which involve drainage device revision. The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and special districts (health systems), but these entities are soliciting administrative healthcare services, staffing, and benefit management rather than the surgical procedure the code nominally describes.

The geographic spread of recent activity spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, Santa Clara County, Collier County), Washington (Washington State Ferries), and Texas (Harris County), though the code shows no meaningful recent activity that is actually procurement of drainage device revisions. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) and the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington ferry locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). The mismatch between this code's stated commodity definition and the non-surgical administrative and staffing services appearing in recent solicitations suggests either systematic miscoding at issuing jurisdictions or a data alignment issue. Firms pursuing state and local work in occupational health, medical evaluation, or healthcare staffing should verify actual solicitation scope against the nominal UNSPSC definition rather than rely on code assignment.
