UNSPSC 85761731 Revision of drainage device in chest wall, external approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal scope. The source contains six recent state and local contract opportunities, but none directly procure the surgical procedure or medical device revision this code nominally describes. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code soliciting independent medical evaluations, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — all administrative, procurement, or staffing functions rather than the specific surgical intervention the code names. This mismatch suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or a gap between the code's narrow clinical definition and how state and local purchasing systems actually apply UNSPSC taxonomy to health-related contracts.

The opportunities that do appear span multiple issuing bodies and geographies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Activity is scattered across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no clear concentration. The closest example to occupational or clinical services is the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026), which does involve physician-conducted medical examinations and record keeping, but remains administrative occupational health rather than surgical device revision. Given the absence of opportunities that actually match the code's stated definition, this code does not merit pursuit at this time based on recent state and local solicitation activity.
