UNSPSC 85672917: Repair left upper extremity bursa and ligament, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair left upper 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 0MQB0ZZ

UNSPSC 85672917 Repair left upper extremity bursa and ligament, open approach is a Commodity code showing no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the five most recent opportunities posted under this code—inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county prison, pharmacy benefit management administration for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services for county members, peer support services for mental health workers, and medical director services for a fire department—bear no substantive connection to surgical repair work. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in how state and local procurement offices have tagged these opportunities or that the code is being used to capture health services procurement more broadly rather than the surgical intervention the code name denotes.

The issuing bodies represent a mix of county government procurement offices and county health departments—Columbus Consolidated Government, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Monroe County Board of County Commissioners, San Mateo County Health, and the City of Santa Monica Fire Department—spanning Georgia, Florida, California. The geographic spread covers three states with no concentration pattern. Given the absence of opportunities materially aligned with the code's surgical scope and the prevalence of administrative health services tagging, this code presents minimal pursuit value for firms focused on orthopedic surgical contracting or medical device supply; the activity appears to reflect category assignment rather than genuine demand for the procedure the code describes.
