UNSPSC 85773342: Drainage of left wrist region with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of left wrist region with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0X9H40Z

UNSPSC 85773342 Drainage of left wrist region with drainage device, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) appears in state and local procurement activity, but the recent opportunities tagged under this code do not align with its medical-procedure scope. The six posted solicitations cover disability medical record review and independent medical examinations (City of Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-out networks (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara Health System). None of these solicitations request the specific orthopedic surgical procedure named in the code.

State and local procurement offices appear to have applied this Commodity code inconsistently or in error across these opportunities. The issuing bodies span city and county health systems, state transportation agencies, and county human resources divisions across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, but the actual work being solicited—benefits administration, staffing coordination, occupational health monitoring, and care management—falls outside orthopedic surgical drainage procedures. No representative recent opportunity directly aligns with the code's stated scope. This code should be monitored cautiously; the tagging mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the procurement system or a fundamental misclassification at the source that limits its utility as a reliable indicator of actual state and local buying patterns in orthopedic surgery or percutaneous endoscopic drainage services.
