This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reattachment of left elbow 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 0MM40ZZ

UNSPSC 85673369 Reattachment of left elbow bursa and ligament, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with state and local government procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure—a medical billing and coding classification used in clinical settings—yet recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code involve occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, and temporary health professional staffing services. These opportunities represent procurement of administrative health services, benefits management, and workforce support rather than elective or trauma orthopedic surgery.

State and local issuers posting opportunities under this code span county governments, city retirement boards, county health systems, and state transportation departments across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Recent activity includes the City of Phoenix Retirement Office requesting independent medical evaluation services (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications under Arizona's Public Safety Personnel Retirement System with a five-year contract value of $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation soliciting occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); the County of Santa Clara Health System establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing services (RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026); and Collier County Board of County Commissioners issuing an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees with historical annual spending of $8.7 million (RFP 25-8414). The code's tagging appears to reflect administrative miscategorization rather than procurement of the specific procedure named in the code descriptor.
