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 0PQ7XZZ

UNSPSC 85691412 Repair right glenoid cavity, external approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope describes orthopedic surgical repair; however, the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code bear no substantive relationship to orthopedic surgery or glenoid cavity repair. The solicitations indexed to this code instead cover inmate healthcare services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer mental health support, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve surgical repair of the shoulder joint. This mismatch indicates either a data classification error at the source or a systematic misalignment between the code's assigned taxonomy and the work actually being procured. State and local procurement activity under this code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with the code's stated scope.

The four posted opportunities span diverse issuing bodies including county corrections departments, county healthcare commissions, county emergency services, and county behavioral health agencies across Florida, Georgia, and California, but none of the work involves orthopedic surgical services or glenoid cavity repair. The apparent absence of properly classified opportunities under this code suggests that vendors pursuing state and local contracts in orthopedic repair should verify the correct UNSPSC classification or consult directly with procurement offices to identify solicitations that match actual surgical service scope.
