UNSPSC 85742423: Drainage of uterus, 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 0U993ZZ

UNSPSC 85742423 Drainage of uterus, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with state and local government procurement activity. The code's clinical nomenclature—a specific surgical procedure—does not match the scope of the recent solicitations tagged under it. State and local bodies are not purchasing percutaneous uterine drainage as a discrete procedure line item; instead, they are procuring healthcare administration services, medical staffing, occupational health surveillance, and benefit management programs.

The recent opportunities show that state and local issuing bodies—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 soliciting independent medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational medicine surveillance, specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these procurements involve the procedure named in the UNSPSC code. The code appears to be a miscategorization; there is no evidence of state and local purchasing activity for percutaneous uterine drainage as a product or service offering. Vendors pursuing state and local contracts in healthcare administration, medical staffing, occupational health, or benefit management should not use this code as a targeting signal.
