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 0MS30ZZ

UNSPSC 85673346 Reposition right elbow bursa and ligament, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show little to no alignment with orthopedic surgery services. The source contains five posted opportunities spanning inmate medical and pharmacy services (Muscogee County Prison), pharmacy benefit management administration (Collier County), virtual primary and urgent care services (Monroe County), peer support for peer workers (San Mateo County), and fire department medical director services (Santa Monica). None of these opportunities involve elbow surgery, orthopedic procedures, or related surgical interventions. The code appears to have been misapplied to these healthcare service procurements, suggesting either a data-entry error or a classification mismatch in the underlying procurement notice databases.

The geographic spread of posted opportunities includes Georgia, Florida, California, and California again, indicating activity across multiple states and counties rather than concentration in a single jurisdiction. However, because the opportunities are substantively unrelated to the code's stated scope, the apparent activity does not signal meaningful procurement demand for the specific service the code describes. State and local procurement professionals evaluating this code should note the classification mismatch and verify the correct UNSPSC code(s) for healthcare administration, medical direction, and related services before pursuing opportunities posted under this orthopedic-surgery code.
