UNSPSC 85671131: Extirpation of matter from perineum bursa and ligament, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from perineum bursa and ligament, 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 0MCK0ZZ

UNSPSC 85671131 Extirpation of matter from perineum bursa and ligament, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged to it encompass independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the surgical removal of perineal bursal or ligamentous matter. The mismatch between the code's clinical scope and the opportunities assigned to it suggests that state and local procurement systems are applying this code to broader medical and health services categories rather than to the specific surgical procedure the code names.

The issuing bodies in the recent block span city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal employee benefit programs (City of Long Beach), state transportation authorities (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county benefits administration (Collier County), and county health systems (Santa Clara County). Geographic activity appears in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no pattern of repeat procurement under this code. Absent a clear alignment between the code's nominal definition and the health services actually being solicited, firms pursuing this code should verify the correct UNSPSC classification for their service line before investing in proposal preparation.
