UNSPSC 85691642: Excision of right glenoid cavity, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of right glenoid cavity, 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 0PB73ZZ

UNSPSC 85691642 Excision of right glenoid cavity, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's clinical procedure scope—a specific orthopedic surgical technique—does not match the kinds of services state and local governments actually buy under medical procurement. The six recent opportunities posted between July and September 2026 include independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing; none involve procedure-specific coding or surgical procurement in the sense the code nominally describes. State and local bodies do not solicit for individual surgical procedures using UNSPSC medical procedure codes. The code shows no relevant recent activity.

The recent opportunities themselves span diverse issuing bodies—a city retirement office (Phoenix), municipal health plans (Long Beach, Collier County), a state transportation department (Washington), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County), and regional health systems (Santa Clara County)—and multiple states including Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas. These represent the full range of state and local health procurement but do not correspond to this code's ostensible commodity classification. This mismatch suggests the code was applied to state-local records in error or that the code's taxonomy definition does not align with how state and local procurement offices actually tag healthcare service opportunities.
