This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right lobe liver, open 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 0FC10ZZ

UNSPSC 85612453 Extirpation of matter from right lobe liver, open approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal clinical procedure scope and the actual work being solicited by state and local governments under this designation. Recent postings reveal that the code is being applied to administrative and occupational medical services, not surgical hepatic procedures. The work actually being bought includes independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, occupational medical surveillance for transportation workers, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing services. Issuing bodies include city retirement offices, state transportation departments, county health systems, and county boards of commissioners—a diverse set of jurisdictions using this code to tag medical administration and support services rather than surgical interventions.

Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas based on recent postings. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 five-year maximum), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance for ferries workers across 14 Washington locations (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification-based solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code's application to administrative healthcare services—benefits management, disability record review, occupational health compliance—rather than surgical procedures suggests either persistent tagging error within state and local procurement systems or that the code has been repurposed to cover a broader suite of healthcare administrative work. Vendors pursuing opportunities under this code should verify the actual scope of work in each RFP before submitting, as the nominal code definition does not reflect current procurement activity.
