This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of left shoulder bursa and ligament with drainage device, 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 0M9240Z

UNSPSC 85673746 Drainage of left shoulder bursa and ligament with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that bears no meaningful relationship to recent state and local procurement activity posted under this classification. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged to it address occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out networks for employee health plans, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth—none of which involve the orthopedic drainage procedure the code describes. State and local procurement offices appear to have misclassified medical administration, staffing, and plan management services under a procedure-specific clinical code, creating a taxonomy mismatch that obscures actual buying patterns.

The issuing bodies across the six recent opportunities span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), a county health system (Santa Clara Health System), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and independent public safety pension boards (Phoenix Fire Pension Board, Phoenix Police Pension Board). The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (due October 9, 2026, pre-bid conference August 31, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out management (due October 7, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026). The code itself offers no actionable buying signal; vendors pursuing state and local health services work should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before responding to opportunities.
