This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of left knee bursa and ligament with drainage device, 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 0M9P30Z

UNSPSC 85672150 Drainage of left knee bursa and ligament with drainage device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal medical procedure scope and actual state and local purchasing activity. Recent opportunities tagged under this code reflect healthcare administration, benefits management, and occupational health services rather than orthopedic surgical procedures. State and local governments are soliciting independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve drainage procedures or orthopedic surgery delivery. The issuing bodies span diverse jurisdiction types: city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), city benefits administration (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation systems (Harris County), county health authorities (Collier County, County of Santa Clara), and independent health systems. This diversity suggests the code assignment may reflect administrative or data-entry error rather than procurement intent.

Geographic activity appears scattered across Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas based on the recent solicitations, with no clear concentration. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 five-year term), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out services covering knee and orthopedic procedures (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026 with pre-bid August 31, 2026), and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (RFP 25-8414, approximately $8.7 million annually). The code's nominal scope—surgical drainage of knee structures—does not match the transactional activity visible in recent state and local postings, making this Commodity code a poor fit for vendors pursuing orthopedic surgery, medical device, or hospital services contracts.
