UNSPSC 85703933: Drainage of left femoral shaft, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of left femoral shaft, percutaneous 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 0Q993ZZ

UNSPSC 85703933 Drainage of left femoral shaft, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal surgical scope. The code's title describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code do not involve orthopedic surgery or percutaneous drainage. Instead, the opportunities span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, and specialty surgical carve-out benefits—none of which align with the procedural specificity the code name implies. This mismatch suggests either classification error in the tagging system or that the code is being used as a catch-all for health services that do not fit elsewhere in the taxonomy.

The issuing bodies posting under this code represent a mix of state agencies, county governments, and cities: the Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, the County of Santa Clara Health System, the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, and the City of Long Beach. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services with proposals due October 9, 2026 (pre-bid conference August 31, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations with proposals due October 16, 2026; and the City of Long Beach's RFP for a surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit program with proposals due October 7, 2026. Geographic concentration appears in Washington and California, with isolated activity in Arizona and Florida. The absence of a coherent procurement pattern aligned to the code's stated scope suggests this code is not a reliable signal for business development in orthopedic or percutaneous surgical procedures at state and local level.
