UNSPSC 85651936 Drainage of right shoulder muscle with drainage device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose nominal title does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are buying under this classification. Recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code do not involve orthopedic surgical procedures but instead span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, Centers of Excellence carve-out networks for elective procedures, and temporary health professional staffing. 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 regional health systems. The mismatch between the code's clinical descriptor and the actual procurement activity suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing procurement offices or a broad category capture that extends well beyond the specific procedure named in the code itself.

The geographic spread of recent activity spans Washington State (occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers with 14-location coverage), Arizona (Phoenix pension board disability medical evaluations), California (Long Beach Centers of Excellence network, Santa Clara County temporary health professional staffing), Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management), and Texas (Harris County youth detention medical services). Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services (due October 9, 2026, with pre-bid conference August 31, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services with $750,000 maximum compensation over five years (due October 16, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQHHSFY270052 for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). No recent opportunities show work directly aligned with the code's stated scope of shoulder drainage procedures with surgical devices.
