This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of right maxilla with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic approach.

UNSPSC 85682210 Drainage of right maxilla with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's title references a specific surgical procedure (maxillary sinus drainage via endoscopy), yet none of the recent solicitations posted under this code involve that procedure or related surgical services. Instead, state and local buyers have tagged opportunities covering occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-outs through Centers of Excellence networks, temporary health professional staffing placement, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which align with the code's stated clinical scope. The issuing bodies span a state transportation department, county health systems, city retirement boards, a county juvenile probation department, and a county board of commissioners, indicating broad institutional diversity in health care and occupational medicine procurement.

The recent opportunities cluster in three states: Washington (state ferries occupational medical surveillance), California (Long Beach surgical carve-out and Santa Clara temporary staffing), Arizona (Phoenix retirement disability evaluations), and Texas (Harris County juvenile detention medical services), with Florida appearing once (Collier County pharmacy benefit management). The Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP for Washington State Ferries (due October 9, 2026) and the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation RFP (due October 16, 2026) represent the most directly health-assessment-focused opportunities, though neither involves the maxillary drainage procedure the code nominally describes. The code exhibits little activity relevant to its stated clinical scope and appears to carry miscoded opportunities; firms pursuing work under this code should verify alignment with actual buying requirements rather than relying on the code's nominal title.
