This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of right lower arm and wrist muscle, 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 0KB90ZZ

UNSPSC 85653428 Excision of right lower arm and wrist muscle, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent solicitations tagged to this code cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth—none of which involve excision of right lower arm and wrist muscle or are clinical surgical procedures themselves. This mismatch suggests either a data-tagging error in the state and local procurement system or that the code is being used as a placeholder for broader healthcare service procurement.

The issuing bodies across the six recent opportunities span diverse jurisdiction types: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. Geographic activity includes Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas, with no clear concentration. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) covering disability medical record summary and examination coordination for approximately 75 annual pension applications at a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years, and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) covering baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry locations. Given the disconnect between the code's clinical scope and the actual procurement activity, this code shows little decision-relevant recent activity for firms pursuing contracts aligned with the stated surgical procedure commodity.
