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 0PQ1XZZ

UNSPSC 85691829 Repair right rib, external approach is a Commodity code that appears misaligned with actual state and local healthcare procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve surgical repair of ribs or orthopedic surgical procedures. The code shows no relevant recent activity; state and local buyers are using this designation inconsistently or incorrectly for comprehensive healthcare administration and clinical services contracting.

The issuing bodies reflect the breadth of state and local health programs: Columbus Consolidated Government (Muscogee County Prison medical services), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management for active and retired employees), Monroe County Board of County Commissioners (virtual primary and urgent care), San Mateo County Health (behavioral health peer support pilot), and Santa Monica Fire Department (EMS medical director). Geographic spread spans Florida (Collier and Monroe Counties), Georgia (Muscogee County), California (San Mateo County), and California (Santa Monica), with no dominant cluster. Representative opportunities include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 (posted April 15, 2026, due May 15, 2026) for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison with current monthly costs of $95,537.71 under the existing CorrectHealth Companies LLC contract; Collier County's RFP 25-8414 (posted April 9, 2026, due April 9, 2026) for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual pharmacy spending of approximately $8.7 million; and Monroe County's Request for Proposals (posted March 14, 2026, due April 16, 2026) for Virtual Primary & Urgent Care Services covering 2,300 county members with an effective date of October 1, 2026. The code does not reflect meaningful procurement of repair services and should not be relied upon for business development targeting in orthopedic or surgical repair categories.
