UNSPSC 85673539: Excision of left shoulder bursa and ligament, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left shoulder 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 0MB23ZZ

UNSPSC 85673539 Excision of left shoulder bursa and ligament, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually procuring under this code classification. The six recent state and local opportunities tagged with this code encompass occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve orthopedic surgical procedures on the shoulder. The mismatch indicates that this code either has been incorrectly assigned to these opportunities or is not actively used in state and local procurement for its nominal procedural scope.

The issuing bodies soliciting under these opportunties span a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), multiple counties (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Santa Clara County Health System), municipalities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), representing a broad mix of administrative and operational healthcare procurement. Recent activity appears concentrated in Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with representatives including the Phoenix Fire Pension Board and Phoenix Police Pension Board (RFP due October 16, 2026 for $750,000 over five years), the City of Long Beach (RFP due October 7, 2026 for Centers of Excellence surgical carve-out services), Washington State Ferries (RFP due October 9, 2026 for occupational medical surveillance), and Collier County (RFP due April 9, 2026 for pharmacy benefit management at approximately $8.7 million annually). The code shows no coherent recent activity aligned with its stated orthopedic surgical scope.
