UNSPSC 85671531: Extirpation of matter from right lower extremity bursa and ligament, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right lower extremity bursa and ligament, 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 0MCV0ZZ

UNSPSC 85671531, Extirpation of matter from right lower extremity bursa and ligament, open approach, is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The UNSPSC taxonomy describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for public safety pension boards, surgical benefit carve-out programs, specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the defined procedure. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the state and local procurement systems or incidental tagging unrelated to the code's intended scope.

The six recent opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies across multiple states: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation for Washington State Ferries, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Response dates range from September 2026 through April 2026 (with the Collier County opportunity bearing a past-due submission deadline), indicating ongoing but scattered administrative and clinical contracting across state departments, counties, and municipal health systems. No standout repeat buyers or concentrated geographic activity appears in the recent record, and the absence of alignment between the code's procedural definition and the work actually being solicited signals that this code does not reflect genuine demand in state and local markets.
