This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of left hand 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 0M980ZZ

UNSPSC 85673425 Drainage of left hand bursa and ligament, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal clinical scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not align with surgical drainage procedures; instead, they reflect state and local procurement for occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and employee surgical benefits programs—none of which involve the specific orthopedic intervention the code nominally names.

The mismatch between the code's surgical definition and the actual scope of recent state and local solicitations suggests that either the code has been misapplied to these opportunities or that this particular UNSPSC category does not see material use in state and local procurement. Recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance services RFP (WSDOT, due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP (Phoenix Fire and Police Pension Boards, due October 16, 2026), the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing pool (Santa Clara County, due October 7, 2026), and the City of Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out program for its Anthem PPO plan (Long Beach, due October 7, 2026). Activity spans Arizona, Washington, California, and Florida. State and local healthcare and benefits administration continues to issue RFPs for medical staffing, occupational health programs, and benefits management, but those procurements are not substantively tied to the orthopedic surgical drainage procedure this code describes.
