This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition right maxilla with external fixation device, 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 0NSR35Z

UNSPSC 85681567 Reposition right maxilla with external fixation device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that reflects a mismatch between its nominal surgical procedure scope and the actual state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities associated with this code do not involve orthognathic or maxillofacial surgery; instead, they cover healthcare services procurement spanning inmate medical and pharmacy management, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care platforms, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction. State and local governments are using this code to solicit comprehensive healthcare administration, clinical delivery, and support services rather than the specific surgical procedure the code name describes. This suggests either a cataloging error in the underlying procurement database or a broad reinterpretation of the code by issuing jurisdictions.

The issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners (Collier County, Monroe County, and Muscogee County in Georgia), a county health department (San Mateo County), and a municipal fire department (Santa Monica). Activity spans Florida, Georgia, and California. Representative recent opportunities include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026, with current monthly cost of $95,537.71 under incumbent CorrectHealth Companies LLC), Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual pharmacy spending of approximately $8.7 million (due April 9, 2026), and Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members (due April 16, 2026). Given the categorical disconnect between the code's stated surgical scope and the healthcare administration and clinical services actually being procured, this code warrants review for proper taxonomy alignment before investment in pursuit strategy.
