UNSPSC 85671404: Revision of drainage device in lower bursa and ligament, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of drainage device in lower bursa and ligament, external 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 0MWYX0Z

UNSPSC 85671404 Revision of drainage device in lower bursa and ligament, external approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—orthopedic surgical procedure coding—does not align with the state and local opportunities currently posted under it. The recent solicitations tagged to this code address occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability benefit determinations, surgical benefit carve-out management, pharmacy benefit administration, health professional temporary staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these activities involve the surgical revision of drainage devices in the lower bursa or ligament. The mismatch suggests either a systematic coding error in how these opportunities have been classified or a divergence between the code's intended scope and its current use in state and local procurement systems.

The opportunities span diverse issuing bodies—a city retirement office (Phoenix), a city employee benefits department (Long Beach), a state transportation agency (Washington), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County, Texas), a county health system (Santa Clara County, California), and a county benefits consortium (Collier County, Florida)—across at least five states with response dates from September 25, 2026 through October 16, 2026. Because the code shows no substantive recent activity in its stated orthopedic surgical domain, this Commodity code does not present a viable pursuit opportunity for firms in that clinical discipline. Organizations focused on occupational health services, benefits consulting, or health plan administration may wish to monitor whether the coding issue persists, but the current activity provides no useful signal for surgical device or orthopedic procedure businesses.
