UNSPSC 85761154 Removal of drainage device from abdominal wall, open approach (Commodity) shows a disconnect between its nominal medical-procedure scope and recent state and local solicitation activity. The code does not align with the actual work state and local governments are buying under this tag. Recent opportunities posted under this code include pension-board disability medical evaluations, surgical-benefits carve-out administration for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing services — none of which involve surgical removal of abdominal drainage devices. The issuing bodies span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Santa Clara County Health System), and municipal agencies (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach).

Recent opportunities show geographic spread across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office issued an RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services with a due date of October 16, 2026 and a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation issued an IFB (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services with a due date of October 9, 2026 and pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; the City of Long Beach issued an RFP (HR26753) for surgical benefit carve-out programs with a due date of October 7, 2026 and anticipated go-live April 1, 2027; and Santa Clara County Health System issued an RFSQ (RFSQHHSFY270052) for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories with a due date of October 7, 2026. The code appears to be a cataloging error or misapplication — vendors pursuing state and local work should verify actual solicitation content before assuming relevance based on UNSPSC categorization alone.
