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, percutaneous 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 0JXH3ZB

UNSPSC 85642127 Transfer left lower arm subcutaneous tissue and fascia with skin and subcutaneous tissue, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code with a mismatch between its nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure code — and the actual state and local procurement activity tagged to it. The recent opportunities associated with this code do not involve the surgical procedure named in the code but rather span occupational medical surveillance, employee health benefits administration, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, specialty medical services for youth in custody, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these activities align with the code's stated surgical classification.

The issuing bodies in the recent-opportunities block include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and special-purpose district entities (Washington State Ferries, county pension boards, county health systems). Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 (total maximum contract value $750,000 over five years); the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference scheduled for August 31, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories due October 7, 2026. Activity is concentrated in the Southwest (Arizona, California) and Pacific Northwest (Washington), with isolated activity in Texas. The code shows no substantive recent procurement activity aligned with its stated surgical procedure scope; the present tagging appears to be a classification error that obscures meaningful market signals for this commodity.
