UNSPSC 85724286 Drainage of right knee joint with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code whose nominal title does not align with the state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities block shows no solicitations for orthopedic surgical procedures or medical devices; instead, the code is applied to solicitations for occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical carve-out benefit programs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. These opportunities concern healthcare administration, benefits management, and personnel staffing rather than the specific knee drainage procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests the code is being misapplied at the source level or the tagging reflects administrative categorization unrelated to procurement substance.

The recent opportunities show activity from state agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation, Santa Clara County Health System), counties (Harris County, Collier County), and cities (Phoenix, Long Beach) across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years) and the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services covering 14 ferry locations statewide (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, two-year term with optional extensions). Given the disconnect between the code's procedural-surgery title and the administrative and staffing services actually being solicited, this code shows little relevant recent activity for firms pursuing orthopedic device or surgical procedure contracts.
