This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of drainage device from right ankle joint, 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 0SPF30Z

UNSPSC 85723822 Removal of drainage device from right ankle joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code with minimal alignment between its nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—and the state and local procurement activity actually tagged under it. The recent opportunities show no solicitations for orthopedic drainage-device removal or related surgical procedures. Instead, the code indexes to a range of health and medical services including occupational medical surveillance, disability medical record review and independent medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and specialty medical services for youth in detention. None of these services involves the orthopedic drainage procedure the code nominally describes, indicating a fundamental mismatch between the code's technical name and current procurement use.

The issuing bodies soliciting under this code span state departments, county health systems, county human resources offices, and city retirement boards across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations (due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting public safety pension disability determinations at $750,000 over five years (due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs serving 3,800 active employees and retirees (due October 7, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing across 13 health professional categories (due October 7, 2026). The code shows recent activity but lacks coherent procurement signal; the mismatch between code definition and actual work being bought presents a tracking and forecasting risk for business development purposes.
