UNSPSC 85717028: Drainage of cervicothoracic vertebral joint with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of cervicothoracic vertebral joint 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 0R9440Z

UNSPSC 85717028 Drainage of cervicothoracic vertebral joint with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code are instead seeking medical evaluation, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit networks, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the code's stated scope of spinal drainage procedures. The mismatch suggests either misclassification in the source data or use of the code as a catch-all for diverse medical and health benefit contracting that falls outside traditional procurement categories.

No state and local opportunities in the recent record actually solicit spinal drainage services, drainage devices, or percutaneous endoscopic procedures. The issuing bodies in the tagged records — the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System — are pursuing administrative medical services, health plan administration, and occupational health programs rather than orthopedic or neurosurgical supplies or procedures. Bidders evaluating this code should confirm the correct UNSPSC classification with procurement offices before pursuing work.
