This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to transfer left lower arm subcutaneous tissue and fascia with skin and subcutaneous tissue, 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 0JXH0ZB

UNSPSC 85641727 Transfer left lower arm subcutaneous tissue and fascia with skin and subcutaneous tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that does not map to actual state and local government procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure classification used in healthcare settings, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code reflect medical services procurement — independent medical evaluations, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgical networks, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve surgical transfer of arm tissue. The mismatch indicates that this code either has been applied inconsistently by issuing bodies or has drifted from its original healthcare taxonomy intent. State and local governments do purchase medical and healthcare services, but the opportunities tagged to this code do not reflect the surgical procedure nomenclature the code's name suggests.

The six recent opportunities span Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, Collier County, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County), solicited between July and September 2026. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, county health systems, county procurement offices, and state transportation departments. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services to support disability determinations (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026, pre-bid conference August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQ to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing across thirteen specialty categories (due October 7, 2026). Because the code's scope and the actual work being bought diverge substantially, firms should verify code alignment with individual issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities flagged under this designation.
