UNSPSC 85691411: Repair left glenoid cavity, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair 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 0PQ8XZZ

UNSPSC 85691411 Repair left glenoid cavity, external approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with that scope. Instead, the opportunities reflect a broad mix of occupational health services, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out programs, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which constitute repair of a left glenoid cavity or map to the code's stated orthopedic surgical focus. The code shows little relevant recent activity for the actual procedure it names.

The six opportunities span multiple issuing bodies and geographies without clear concentration. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services for public safety disability determinations (due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach issued an RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence (due October 7, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations (due October 9, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (due September 25, 2026); Collier County Board of County Commissioners solicited Pharmacy Benefit Management Services (deadline April 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System sought temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. Given the mismatch between the code's orthopedic surgical meaning and the health services administration, staffing, and benefits management work actually appearing in recent opportunities, this code does not appear to be the correct taxonomy classification for state and local procurement in this domain.
