This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of bilateral epididymis with drainage device, open 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 0V9L00Z

UNSPSC 85753156 Drainage of bilateral epididymis with drainage device, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not align with the code's nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure. Instead, the opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluation services for public safety disability retirement determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve the drainage procedure described in the code name.

The mismatch between the code's definition and the work actually being solicited suggests either data-entry error in the state and local procurement systems or a coding practice that does not track the clinical specificity of this Commodity tier. The issuing bodies posting under this code include city retirement offices, county health systems, state transportation departments, county juvenile justice agencies, and county commissions — a diverse mix of health-care and administrative purchasers across Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas. Firms evaluating this code for business development purposes should verify the actual work scope in any RFP before assuming alignment with the Commodity definition; the code's recent activity does not support pursuit of clinical drainage procedures specifically.
