UNSPSC 85783121: Removal of other device from left lower extremity, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of other device from left lower extremity, 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 0YPB4YZ

UNSPSC 85783121 Removal of other device from left lower extremity, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged to it do not match this scope. Instead, the posted solicitations cover independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-outs through centers of excellence, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the code's stated definition of a percutaneous endoscopic device-removal procedure. The mismatch suggests either tagging error on the source side or that this code is being misapplied to general healthcare procurement rather than the specific procedural intervention it names.

The few opportunities in the block originate from diverse issuing bodies across different states: 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 (Washington), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Without a coherent scope mapping to the code's definition, no meaningful pattern of repeat buyers, geographic concentration, or representative work emerges. Prospective vendors should verify the actual UNSPSC coding intended for any state or local healthcare or occupational health opportunity before responding, as this code does not appear to be capturing the actual procurement activities being solicited.
