This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extraction of left thorax 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 0MDG0ZZ

UNSPSC 85672546 Extraction of left thorax bursa and ligament, open approach is a Commodity code that carries a medical-procedure classification code but does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this tag. The recent opportunities show no procurement activity aligned with surgical extraction procedures. Instead, the code is being applied to administrative and occupational health services that sit outside its nominal scope—independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, specialty surgical network carve-outs for employee health plans, and temporary clinical staffing. This mismatch signals that the code either reflects a data-entry error in the source system or is being misapplied as a catch-all for medical services without regard to the procedure-specific taxonomy it represents.

The issuing bodies reflect a typical state and local mix: a city retirement office (Phoenix), municipalities (Long Beach), a state transportation department (Washington), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County, Texas), a county board of commissioners (Collier County, Florida), and a county health system (Santa Clara, California). The most recent opportunities cluster in California, Arizona, Washington, Texas, and Florida, with response dates ranging from September through early October 2026. The single opportunity closest to clinical procedure content is the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical Centers of Excellence networks (due October 7, 2026), which offers pre- and post-care for knee, hip, orthopedic, shoulder, spine, heart, weight loss, and oncology procedures through bundled payment models. Given the absence of procurement activity actually seeking extraction of thorax bursa and ligament services, this code shows little actionable activity for firms pursuing state and local opportunities in its stated domain.
