This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release left glenoid cavity, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0PN84ZZ

UNSPSC 85691735 Release left glenoid cavity, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local opportunities solicited under this code do not align with surgical intervention services. Instead, the code tags procurement for occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing placement, and surgical procedure carve-out benefit administration. State and local issuing bodies—including city retirement offices, county health systems, state transportation departments, and county juvenile probation departments—are using this code to solicit medical services administration, pre- and post-operative care coordination through centers of excellence, and third-party occupational health program management. The mismatch between the code's surgical nomenclature and the actual scope of work being procured indicates this code is not capturing surgical procedure delivery but rather the administrative and clinical support services that surround medical interventions in the public-sector healthcare and benefits context.

The most recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, budgeted at $750,000 over five years, seeking disability record summarization and physician examination coordination. The Washington State Department of Transportation issued an RFB for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations due October 9, 2026, requiring board-certified occupational physicians and 24/7 technical support. The County of Santa Clara Health System established a non-exclusive qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 clinical ancillary categories due October 7, 2026. The City of Long Beach solicited surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit management through centers of excellence for its Anthem Blue Cross PPO plan, also due October 7, 2026, targeting knee, hip, spine, shoulder, heart, weight loss, and oncology procedures on a voluntary basis. This code shows active state and local demand for medical administration and clinical support services rather than operative interventions themselves.
