This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of right upper arm muscle, 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 0K574ZZ

UNSPSC 85653754 Destruction of right upper arm muscle, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code. The code's nominal title reflects a specific surgical procedure, but state and local government procurement activity under this code does not align with that clinical descriptor. Instead, the recent opportunities reflect a broader portfolio of occupational health, employee benefits, and public-sector medical services unrelated to upper-extremity surgical destruction. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code span state departments, counties, cities, and regional health systems — the Washington State Department of Transportation (ferries division), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. The scope of work actually being procured includes occupational medical surveillance for ferries employees, disability medical record summary and independent evaluation services for police and fire pension boards, surgical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees, pharmacy benefit management, temporary ancillary health professional staffing, and emergency/specialty medical services for youth in custody. This represents a significant mismatch between the code's stated purpose and the procurements tagged under it, suggesting misclassification in state or local procurement system taxonomies.

Geographic activity concentrates in California (Santa Clara County, Long Beach), Arizona (Phoenix), Florida (Collier County), Washington (ferries statewide), and Texas (Harris County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, response due October 16, 2026, $750,000 five-year maximum), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry locations (RFP20260825, response due October 9, 2026, two-year initial term with optional extensions), the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation for a qualified vendor pool of temporary health professionals (RFSQHHSFY270052, response due October 7, 2026, non-exclusive multiple-award vehicle), and the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits (HR26753, response due October 7, 2026, target contract start April 1, 2027). The code shows minimal relevant recent activity and appears to be a taxonomy error; firms pursuing work in occupational health, employee benefits administration, or municipal medical services should not rely on this code for opportunity identification.
