UNSPSC 85631478: Extirpation of matter from right upper arm skin, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right upper arm skin, external 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 0HCBXZZ

UNSPSC 85631478 Extirpation of matter from right upper arm skin, external approach is a Commodity code that carries a clinical-procedure taxonomy label but shows no alignment with the state and local government procurement activity currently tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code—independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefits for municipal employees, occupational health surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—address institutional healthcare administration, clinical staffing, and medical benefit management, not dermatological procedures on a specific anatomical site. The code appears to be a mislabeling artifact in state and local procurement systems rather than a genuine commodity category in active use for the kinds of services being solicited.

Activity concentrates in mid-sized and large public employers: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). The most recent and substantive opportunity is the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) seeking baseline and periodic medical examinations across 14 ferry terminals, requiring physician supervision and state regulatory alignment, with contract award anticipated by November 30, 2026. The Phoenix Retirement Office RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) seeks independent medical evaluation and disability record summarization services for approximately 75 annual applications, with a five-year maximum contract value of $750,000. Neither the code's medical taxonomy nor the procurement activity it represents reflects actionable market opportunity for vendors seeking work under this Commodity classification.
