This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of drainage device in lower muscle, 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 0KWY00Z

UNSPSC 85651127 Revision of drainage device in lower muscle, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure for revision of lower-extremity drainage devices using an open surgical approach; however, recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code do not reflect orthopedic or surgical device procurement. Instead, the opportunities posted under this code span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and youth detention medical services. These solicitations represent healthcare services and administrative health program management rather than medical device procurement or surgical procedure contracting. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal health systems (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Harris County), and county human resources functions (Collier County). The code does not appear to serve as a standard procurement vehicle for the surgical procedure or device work its name suggests.

Geographic activity appears dispersed across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no dominant regional concentration. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance solicitation (RFP 20260825, due October 9, 2026), which seeks physician-led baseline and periodic examinations for ferry system workers across 14 Washington locations on a cost-based competitive basis; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), seeking disability medical record summarization and examination coordination for approximately 75 annual pension applications at $750,000 over five years; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing RFP (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026), establishing a qualified vendor pool across 13 ancillary clinical categories. The mismatch between the code's surgical device scope and the health services and administrative procurement activity it spans suggests the code may be misapplied in state and local systems or reflects legacy tagging that does not track current buying patterns.
