UNSPSC 85672561: Drainage of left thorax bursa and ligament, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of left thorax bursa and ligament, open 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 0M9G0ZZ

UNSPSC 85672561 Drainage of left thorax bursa and ligament, open approach is a Commodity code assigned to medical procedures, but recent state and local contract opportunities show no alignment with this surgical code. The six opportunities posted since late July 2026 reflect purchasing for occupational health surveillance services, disability medical evaluation programs, surgical benefit management and Centers of Excellence networks, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing placement, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which involve thoracic drainage procedures. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity suggests the code sees little relevant current market activity in state and local contracting.

The issuing bodies span a state transportation department, county governments, a city retirement office, a city employee health plan administrator, and a county health system across Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. The Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) is the only solicitation explicitly requiring board certification in a medical specialty; the City of Phoenix's independent medical evaluation RFP (due October 16, 2026) targets disability benefit determinations for public safety personnel; and the City of Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out RFP (due October 7, 2026) seeks Centers of Excellence networks. The diversity of issuing bodies and geographic spread across multiple states indicates no concentration of activity under this code, and no repeat buyers appear in the recent opportunities. The code's operational relevance to state and local procurement remains unestablished.
