UNSPSC 85672553: Extirpation of matter from left trunk bursa and ligament, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from left trunk 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 0MCD0ZZ

UNSPSC 85672553, Extirpation of matter from left trunk bursa and ligament, open approach, is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The recent solicitations tagged to this code—independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency medical services for youth in detention, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—describe administrative healthcare contracting, benefits program management, and occupational health compliance services. None involves surgical extraction of matter from a bursa or ligament. The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the code assignment or a systematic tagging misalignment between state and local procurement offices and the UNSPSC taxonomy.

Recent activity spans multiple issuing bodies and geographies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). The opportunities posted between July and September 2026 reflect administrative healthcare and occupational health services rather than surgical procedures, making this code unsuitable for bidders with orthopedic surgery, musculoskeletal procedure, or bursal/ligament intervention capabilities.
