UNSPSC 85673636: Resection of right wrist bursa and ligament, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to resection of right wrist bursa and ligament, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0MT54ZZ

UNSPSC 85673636, a Commodity code nominally describing a surgical procedure (resection of right wrist bursa and ligament, percutaneous endoscopic approach), shows a significant mismatch between its code designation and recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not reflect surgical procedures or related clinical services; instead, they span independent medical evaluations, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. These are healthcare administration, occupational medicine, staffing, and benefits-management services rather than the specific wrist procedure the code name denotes. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, state transportation departments, county health systems, county commissioners' offices, and county juvenile probation departments—a diverse mix of local health authorities and administrative agencies rather than surgical service providers or facility operators.

Geographic activity spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminal and vessel locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, two-year base with up to five additional one-year options), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code appears to capture health administration and occupational medicine procurement rather than surgical interventions, suggesting a taxonomy classification error rather than active market demand for the specific procedure named in the code.
