UNSPSC 85691914: Revision of synthetic substitute in right rib, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in right rib, open 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 0PW10JZ

UNSPSC 85691914 Revision of synthetic substitute in right rib, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—does not align with the six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 under this code classification. Those solicitations instead address occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical care networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which involve revision of synthetic rib substitutes or surgical implant procedures.

The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in state and local procurement systems or that the code is used as a catch-all for medical services procurement without regard to specificity. The issuing bodies—the City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System—span multiple jurisdictions and procurement categories, but their actual service lines bear no connection to the orthopedic procedure the code nominally describes. Business development professionals should verify whether this code is actively used for implant or surgical-device procurement in their target markets before committing resources to monitor it.
