UNSPSC 85762143: Drainage of right pleural cavity, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of right pleural cavity, 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 0W993ZZ

UNSPSC 85762143 Drainage of right pleural cavity, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not correspond to actual state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities block. The code nominally describes a specific invasive medical procedure, yet the posted solicitations span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency services for detained youth — none of which involve pleural drainage or directly parallel the procedural specificity the code implies. The mismatch suggests the code assignment does not reflect the buying behavior of state and local governments under this taxonomy entry.

The recent opportunities instead show state and local health purchasers (municipal retirement systems, county health systems, state ferries operations, county probation departments, and county human resources divisions) acquiring administrative, staffing, and care-coordination services rather than discrete procedural interventions. No geographic concentration or repeat-buyer pattern emerges across the six solicitations, which span Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas with response dates clustered between September and October 2026. This code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated scope.
