This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of right patella with drainage device, 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 0Q9D40Z

UNSPSC 85704854 Drainage of right patella with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—bears no relation to the six recent opportunities posted under it, which address independent medical evaluations for pension benefit determinations, surgical benefits administration through Centers of Excellence, occupational health surveillance, emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. State and local governments do not procure individual surgical procedures as line items; the mismatch suggests a classification error in the source data rather than active buying under this code.

The recent opportunities show purchasing bodies across multiple jurisdictions—the City of Phoenix (pension administration), City of Long Beach (employee health benefits), Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational health), Harris County (juvenile detention healthcare), Collier County (pharmacy administration), and Santa Clara County (temporary staffing)—pursuing administrative and staffing services in healthcare delivery rather than coded procedures. No state or local government has posted a solicitation for orthopedic surgical interventions under this code, nor is such procurement typical of state and local procurement patterns. This code appears inactive for its intended scope in state and local markets.
