UNSPSC 85652841: Drainage of right upper leg muscle, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of right upper leg 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 0K9Q0ZZ

UNSPSC 85652841 Drainage of right upper leg muscle, open approach (Commodity) shows a mismatch between its nominal clinical procedure code and the state and local procurement activity recently tagged under it. The recent opportunities solicited under this code do not involve surgical drainage procedures; instead, they span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out networks for employee benefits, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these services align with orthopedic surgical intervention. The code appears to have been applied to medical administration and occupational health contracting outside its intended clinical scope.

The issuing bodies span a mix of local and county government: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations with proposals due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations, due October 16, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical specialties, due October 7, 2026. Given the absence of relevant procurement activity, this code should not be relied upon for targeting state and local medical services contracting.
