This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left elbow bursa and ligament, percutaneous 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 0MB43ZZ

UNSPSC 85673537 Excision of left elbow bursa and ligament, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged under it span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgical center-of-excellence networks, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare services — none of which align with the code's stated clinical procedure. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, county health systems, state transportation departments, county boards, and other municipal entities. Because the recent opportunities do not correspond to the code's actual scope, this code does not reliably signal procurement activity worth pursuing under its name.

The geographic spread of the tangentially related opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County), suggesting that state and local medical procurement is geographically dispersed rather than concentrated. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a $750,000 maximum over five years and an October 16, 2026 due date, the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services with an October 9, 2026 due date, and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories with an October 7, 2026 due date. Vendors evaluating this code should verify their classification against actual procurement opportunities rather than relying on the code's clinical descriptor.
