UNSPSC 85672904: Revision of synthetic substitute in upper bursa and ligament, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in upper 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 0MWX0JZ

UNSPSC 85672904 Revision of synthetic substitute in upper bursa and ligament, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, yet the six most recent opportunities tagged under it span independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare delivery, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which align with the specific orthopedic surgical procedure the code names. State and local buyers appear to have applied this code incorrectly or as a catchall for medical and health services procurement that does not match the code's narrow surgical scope.

The mismatch between code definition and actual buying patterns makes pursuit under this code inadvisable. If activity does materialte under the true scope—state or local procurement of orthopedic surgical implants, revision procedures, or related supplies—it would likely emerge from health systems, county hospitals, or state departments of health or corrections. No recent solicitations show genuine demand for the synthetic substitutes or open approach revision services this Commodity code describes. Business development professionals evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for state and local procurement purposes and monitor whether future opportunities correctly classify orthopedic surgical work under more precise Commodity or Class codes.
