UNSPSC 85695702: Change drainage device in upper bone, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to change drainage device in upper bone, external 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 0P2YX0Z

UNSPSC 85695702, Change drainage device in upper bone, external approach, is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local opportunities, shows minimal alignment with its nominal scope. The three opportunities posted under this code—independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for public employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—do not involve orthopedic or surgical drainage procedures. The mismatch suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or that the code is not actively used for its intended medical device or procedural purpose in state and local procurement. Issuing bodies using this code include city retirement offices, county health systems, state departments of transportation, and county procurement divisions across multiple service lines (benefits administration, occupational health, detention health services) rather than orthopedic surgical facilities or ambulatory surgical centers.

Geographic activity is dispersed across Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington (statewide ferries), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with no concentration in any single state or region. Recent representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years) and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference scheduled August 31, 2026). The code shows no procurement activity directly related to drainage device replacement or upper bone surgical interventions.
