UNSPSC 85661238: Drainage of right thorax tendon with drainage device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of right thorax tendon with drainage device, 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 0L9C00Z

UNSPSC 85661238 Drainage of right thorax tendon with drainage device, open approach is a Commodity code that appears misaligned with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, disability medical evaluations, surgical care networks, and temporary clinical staffing—none of which involve thoracic tendon drainage. No state or local solicitation in the recent-opportunities block is purchasing the procedure this code purports to name.

The mismatch suggests either a data-classification error in how opportunities were tagged to this code or that the code itself is not in active use for state and local procurement. The Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix's independent medical evaluation services RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara's temporary health professional staffing pool (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) are representative of the opportunities currently tagged here, yet none involve the surgical procedure named by the code. Given the clear disconnect between the code's nominal scope and actual recent procurement activity, this code shows little relevant decision signal for vendors pursuing state and local contracts in its stated commodity area.
