UNSPSC 85642457: Alteration of left upper arm subcutaneous tissue and fascia, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of left upper arm subcutaneous tissue and fascia, 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 0J0F3ZZ

UNSPSC 85642457 Alteration of left upper arm subcutaneous tissue and fascia, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its clinical procedure scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code are instead purchasing occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for youth detention—none of which constitute surgical alteration of upper arm tissue. The mismatch suggests the code is either misapplied in state and local procurement systems or its definition does not reflect the categories through which these jurisdictions actually acquire medical services.

The geographic spread of the unrelated opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County). Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) supporting disability benefit determinations for approximately 75 annual applications under Arizona's Public Safety Personnel Retirement System, and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations statewide (due October 9, 2026, with pre-bid scheduled August 31, 2026). The code shows no current relevant procurement activity for the surgical procedure it nominally describes.
