This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in left glenoid cavity, external 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 0PW8XJZ

UNSPSC 85691402 Revision of synthetic substitute in left glenoid cavity, external approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—does not match the medical and health services work actually being solicited by state and local jurisdictions under this taxonomy entry. Recent opportunities tagged to this code instead cover occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve glenoid cavity revision surgery or implant procurement.

The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the breadth of health administration and staffing services appearing in the opportunity records suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or a data artifact in how the code has been applied to non-surgical health contracting. The Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) represent the recent activity nominally tagged to this code, but none involve implant revision, surgical product procurement, or the orthopedic specialty scope the code name describes. Vendors pursuing work under this code should verify actual buyer intent and UNSPSC coding accuracy before committing bid resources, as the code appears to carry substantial labeling or categorization noise.
