UNSPSC 85673709: Extraction of left hand bursa and ligament, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extraction of left hand 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 0MD84ZZ

UNSPSC 85673709 Extraction of left hand bursa and ligament, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that bears no meaningful relationship to the state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure; the recent opportunities posted under this code instead solicit medical management services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit administration, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involves bursa or ligament extraction or the procedural clinical work the code nominally covers. The issuing bodies across the recent opportunities span city retirement offices, county human resources departments, state transportation agencies, county juvenile probation departments, and county health systems, but the procedural specificity of the UNSPSC code does not align with the administrative or occupational health nature of the work being procured.

The geographic distribution of recent activity includes Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services with proposals due October 16, 2026 and a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals with proposals due October 9, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFSQ HHSFY270052 for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories with proposals due October 7, 2026. The code shows substantial recent posting activity, but the disconnect between the orthopedic surgical procedure nominally described and the actual scope of work being bought suggests either a data-tagging error in the source or a systematic miscoding of administrative and occupational health services under an inaccurate UNSPSC classification.
