UNSPSC 85672141: Drainage of left foot bursa and ligament, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of left foot bursa and ligament, percutaneous 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 0M9T3ZZ

UNSPSC 85672141 Drainage of left foot bursa and ligament, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity aligned with its stated medical procedure scope. The recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code are actually procuring occupational medical surveillance services, independent medical evaluation services for disability retirement determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out networks, specialty and emergency medical services for youth in custody, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories — none of which involve orthopedic drainage procedures. The mismatch suggests this code has been misapplied to general medical service procurement rather than the specific surgical intervention it nominally describes.

The issuing bodies span county health systems (Santa Clara), large municipalities (Phoenix, Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation agencies (Harris County), and county benefits/HR divisions (Collier County). Geographic activity includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no concentration in any single jurisdiction. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 (maximum compensation $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry locations due October 9, 2026, and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. Given the evident code miscoding, pursuit should hinge on whether your firm's capabilities align with the actual medical services these jurisdictions are buying — occupational health screening, disability benefit evaluation, or staffing — rather than the orthopedic procedure the code nominates.
