UNSPSC 85671535 Drainage of left lower extremity bursa and ligament with drainage device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability benefit evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical Center of Excellence networks, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth. None of these solicitations involve the surgical procedure named in the code. The mismatch indicates that this UNSPSC code is misapplied to state and local health and benefits administration work, or that the code assignment in the source data is in error.
