This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of right thorax bursa and ligament, 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 0M9F4ZZ

UNSPSC 85672763 Drainage of right thorax bursa and ligament, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal surgical procedure scope and the actual medical services state and local governments are buying under this tag. Recent state and local opportunities solicited under this code involve occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-outs, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty hospital services for detained youth—none of which align with the code's stated surgical drainage procedure. The issuing bodies span large cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System), county commissioners (Collier County), and county juvenile probation departments (Harris County). This suggests the code has been applied inconsistently or as a catch-all tag for health and medical service procurement that falls outside more precise UNSPSC categories.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in California (Collier County in Florida, Santa Clara County, Long Beach) and the Pacific Northwest (Washington State), with additional recent solicitations in Arizona (Phoenix) and Texas (Harris County). Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services to support disability benefit determinations (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance services RFP for ferry workers across 14 locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, with pre-bid scheduled August 31, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code shows no coherent procurement pattern aligned with its stated procedure—vendors pursuing work under this tag should verify scope alignment at the RFP stage rather than assume procedural drainage services are being solicited.
