UNSPSC 85642516 Change drainage device in head and neck subcutaneous tissue and fascia, external approach is a Commodity code with little recent relevant activity under state and local procurement. The code describes a specific surgical procedure—replacement or modification of a drainage device in head and neck tissue—that does not align with the scope of the recent opportunities tagged to it in state and local records.

The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 span occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation), disability medical evaluations (City of Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-outs (City of Long Beach), specialty medical services for youth in detention (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County, Florida), and temporary health professional staffing pools (County of Santa Clara Health System, California). None of these solicitations involve implantable or subcutaneous drainage device procurement, surgical implantation, or the specific procedural service the code nominally describes. The code appears to have been misapplied to health services contracting opportunities that fall outside orthopedic or surgical device supply and installation. State and local procurement activity under this Commodity code does not currently support a pursue decision.
