UNSPSC 85653616: Transfer right lower arm and wrist muscle with skin, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to transfer right lower arm and wrist muscle with skin, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0KX94Z0

UNSPSC 85653616 Transfer right lower arm and wrist muscle with skin, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its surgical-procedure nomenclature and the state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not reflect surgical transfers or orthopedic procedures; instead, they span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty surgical networks for employee benefit programs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. The mismatch suggests either a data-classification error in the state and local procurement systems tagging these opportunities or a fundamental disconnect between the code's clinical descriptor and how jurisdictions are using it in practice. Work actually being solicited ranges from administrative medical record review and examinations for pension disability determinations to third-party network management for Centers of Excellence, occupational health compliance services, and PBM administration — none of which involve the specific surgical procedure named in the code.

State and local bodies issuing under this code include city pension boards and retirement offices (City of Phoenix), large municipal health systems (County of Santa Clara, City of Long Beach), state transportation authorities (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation departments (Harris County), and county human resources and benefits consortiums (Collier County Board of County Commissioners). Recent activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance services RFP for Washington State Ferries (due October 9, 2026, pre-bid August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026). Because the code's stated commodity does not match the actual services being procured, evaluating whether this code warrants pursuit requires clarifying the classification error with the issuing jurisdictions or establishing whether your firm has capability across the broader health services administration and occupational medicine space rather than orthopedic surgical transfer procedures.
