This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of left humeral shaft, 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 0P9G4ZZ

UNSPSC 85694429 Drainage of left humeral shaft, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure code—and the state and local opportunities actually tagged under it. The recent solicitations reveal that this code is being used to classify broad medical services procurement across occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, emergency and specialty healthcare delivery for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these activities involve the surgical drainage procedure the code nominally describes. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), county health systems (Santa Clara, Collier County, Harris County), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), and municipal employee benefits divisions (Long Beach), indicating that the code is functioning as a catch-all for medical services rather than capturing a defined clinical procedure line.

The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations (due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026, pre-bid conference August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026, non-exclusive multiple-award structure with no guaranteed work). The code's application to medical services procurement appears to reflect administrative tagging rather than true commodity-level specificity; vendors pursuing opportunities under this code should verify the actual scope of work in each solicitation rather than relying on the code's nominal description.
