This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of right lower extremity bursa and ligament with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0M9V40Z

UNSPSC 85671737 Drainage of right lower extremity bursa and ligament with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not reflect the orthopedic surgical procedure the code nominally describes. Instead, the solicitations tagged to this code span independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, occupational medical surveillance, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the specific orthopedic drainage procedure named in the code. The mismatch suggests either broad categorical tagging by procurement offices unfamiliar with UNSPSC medical-procedure taxonomy or systematic miscoding of health-service opportunities within state and local systems.

State and local buyers posting under this code include city retirement boards and pension authorities (Phoenix), county health systems (Santa Clara), county commissioners and human resources divisions (Collier County, Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), and municipal health plans. The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas, reflecting national fragmentation rather than regional concentration. Without representative opportunities directly matching the code's stated scope, this code presents minimal pursuit value for orthopedic device or surgical-procedure service providers. Business development professionals should verify code assignment with issuing bodies before investing in responses, as the taxonomy appears misaligned with actual procurement intent at the state and local level.
