UNSPSC 85673553: Drainage of left shoulder bursa and ligament, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of left shoulder 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 0M923ZZ

UNSPSC 85673553 Drainage of left shoulder bursa and ligament, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure; however, the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code involve occupational and disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, health professional staffing coordination, surgical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees, and hospital-based emergency and specialty services for detained youth. These solicitations address medical administration, staffing, and benefit management rather than surgical procedures. The mismatch suggests this code may have been applied incorrectly to opportunities in the health services contracting space, or the taxonomy assignment does not reflect the actual nature of work being solicited.

No recent state and local opportunities present activity directly related to orthopedic surgical drainage procedures under this commodity code. The six posted solicitations span Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas and involve entities including the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and Santa Clara County Health System, but none procure surgical procedures matching the code's stated scope. Business development activity under this code should focus on confirming whether procurement offices are applying the code consistently or whether surgical procedure procurement operates under different UNSPSC classifications.
