UNSPSC 85690000: Surgical interventions or procedures of upper bones

This family of surgical interventions or procedures is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS as code 0P Upper Bones.

UNSPSC 85690000 Surgical interventions or procedures of upper bones is a Family code that encompasses occupational medical surveillance, independent disability evaluations, and surgical benefit administration services as actually solicited by state and local government—a narrow but distinct activity that does not consistently align with the code's nominal scope of upper-bone surgical procedures. Recent opportunities show state and local bodies buying independent medical record summarization and disability determinations (City of Phoenix Retirement Office); occupational health surveillance for transportation workers (Washington State Department of Transportation); surgical procedure carve-out benefit administration for municipal employees (City of Long Beach); and specialty medical services coordination for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department). Issuing bodies include state departments, counties, cities, and special districts; the Phoenix Fire and Police Pension Boards and the Washington State Ferries represent repeat or specialized demand, though the sample is small.

Geographic activity is concentrated in Arizona, California, and Washington, with some demand in Texas and Florida. The most active recent opportunities are the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026 (physician-led baseline and periodic examinations across 14 locations, two-year term with extension options); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026 ($750,000 maximum over five years for disability record review and examination scheduling); and the City of Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out RFP due October 7, 2026 (Centers of Excellence networks for orthopedic, spine, cardiac, and oncology procedures for 3,800 covered lives). The code shows limited recent activity and a material mismatch between the nominal UNSPSC category and the work actually being solicited; opportunities are episodic rather than continuous.
