This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of left temporomandibular joint with drainage device, 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 0R9D30Z

UNSPSC 85715033 Drainage of left temporomandibular joint with drainage device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure — specifically drainage of a temporomandibular joint using a percutaneous approach with a drainage device — yet the recent opportunities tagged to this code do not reflect orthopedic or ENT surgical services. Instead, the solicitations captured cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out networks, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, and surgical center-of-excellence programs. None of these solicitations involve temporomandibular joint procedures or percutaneous drainage techniques. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the source data or that the code is being used as a catch-all container for unrelated healthcare services.

The recent opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies — city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), county health systems (Santa Clara Health System), county government (Harris County, Collier County), state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), and municipalities (City of Long Beach). Geographic spread includes California (Long Beach, Santa Clara), Arizona (Phoenix), Washington State (Ferries), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County). Representative solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026, and the City of Phoenix Retirement Office independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026, each seeking to establish ongoing clinical evaluation and record-management services rather than surgical procedures. Because the code's nominal scope bears no clear relationship to the work actually being solicited, this code does not present a meaningful target for vendors pursuing state and local healthcare contracts.
