UNSPSC 85772244 Drainage of right axilla with drainage device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code by state and local issuing bodies cover occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty surgical carve-out programs, and juvenile detention medical services — none of which involve the named surgical intervention. The disconnect suggests either a cataloging error in the source material or a mismatch between how the code was applied and what state and local bodies are actually soliciting.

The opportunities that do appear under this code span diverse issuing bodies including the Washington State Department of Transportation (Washington State Ferries), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. Recent activity is concentrated in California, Arizona, Washington, and Texas. Representative solicitations include the Washington State Ferries' occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix's independent medical evaluation services RFP for disability pension determinations (due October 16, 2026), and the Collier County pharmacy benefit management RFP (due April 9, 2026). Given the lack of alignment between the code's stated scope and the opportunities listed, this code warrants clarification before investing pursuit effort.
