This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of thoracic vertebra with drainage device, open approach.

UNSPSC 85692644 Drainage of thoracic vertebra with drainage device, open approach (Commodity) does not align with the state and local procurement activity captured under this code. The recent opportunities posted under this Commodity code reflect health services contracting—occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation administration, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-outs, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth—rather than surgical interventions or device implantation. The mismatch suggests either a coding error in the state and local procurement system or that this code is being applied as a catch-all for health services that do not fit established taxonomy categories.

Recent activity spans state departments, counties, and municipalities across multiple regions. The Washington State Department of Transportation (Washington State Ferries) posted RFP20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years); the City of Long Beach requested proposals for surgical benefit carve-out programs (HR26753, due October 7, 2026); Collier County Commissioners issued RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services (approximately $8.7 million annually); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth (071626BNM, due September 25, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 clinical ancillary categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity in its nominal scope of surgical procedures and devices.
