UNSPSC 85691700: Concave bone shoulder, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This class includes one or more of 17 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the concave bone of the shoulder with percutaneous endoscopic approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0P.

UNSPSC 85691700 Concave bone shoulder, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Class code that shows little relevant recent activity. The recent state and local opportunities posted under this code include medical surveillance for ferry employees, independent disability medical evaluations for public safety pension boards, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, emergency medical services for detained youth, and specialty orthopedic procedures—none of which align with the code's nominal scope of a specific orthopedic surgical procedure. The mismatch between the code name and the solicitations suggests this code may have been applied incorrectly by issuing bodies or does not drive meaningful purchasing activity in state and local procurement at present.

The few opportunities tagged with this code span Arizona, California, Washington, and Texas jurisdictions, including city retirement offices, municipal human resources departments, state departments of transportation, county boards, and county health systems. No clear geographic concentration or issuing-body pattern emerges from the small sample, and no repeat buyers appear across the opportunities. Given the absence of solicitations actually seeking concave bone shoulder procedures or orthopedic surgical implants, vendors targeting traditional surgical product or service lines should monitor higher-level UNSPSC families in the medical device and health-care-service ranges rather than pursue work under this specific code.
