UNSPSC 85722832: Revision of drainage device in right knee joint, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of drainage device in right knee joint, 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 0SWCX0Z

UNSPSC 85722832 Revision of drainage device in right knee joint, external approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope describes an orthopedic surgical procedure—revision of a knee-joint drainage device performed via external approach—yet the recent opportunities posted under this code reflect occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical care carve-out programs for public employees and retirees. No recent solicitations are actually seeking the orthopedic implant revision service the code nominally describes.

The mismatch between code taxonomy and actual procurement intent suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or a data-quality issue in how opportunities were tagged. State and local procurement offices occasionally apply UNSPSC codes that do not reflect the work being bought. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) is seeking independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations; the City of Long Beach (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026) is seeking a surgical care carve-out program for employee and retiree benefits; the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) is seeking occupational medical surveillance; and the County of Santa Clara Health System (RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple clinical specialties. None of these activities involve orthopedic implant procurement or revision surgery. This code shows little actionable recent activity for firms pursuing traditional medical device or surgical-procedure contracts in state and local markets.
