This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of internal fixation device from left scapula, 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 0PP604Z

UNSPSC 85692009, Removal of internal fixation device from left scapula, open approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code describes a specific surgical procedure classified under orthopedic and trauma care, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code do not match the surgical scope — instead, they document requests for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management administration, virtual primary and urgent care platforms, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical director services. None of these solicitations involve surgical removal of orthopedic hardware or scapular procedures, indicating a mismatch between the code's nominal scope and what state and local agencies are actually buying under it.

The geographic spread of opportunities shows activity in Georgia, Florida, and California — specifically Columbus Consolidated Government (Muscogee County Prison, Georgia), Collier County and Monroe County (Florida), San Mateo County (California), and Santa Monica Fire Department (California). The issuing bodies represent county governments and a city fire department procuring managed-care and clinical support services rather than surgical procedures. No recent opportunities reflected in this block document orthopedic device removal, surgical supplies procurement, or related instrumentation. The code warrants monitoring, but the current signal suggests limited alignment with typical state and local medical procurement patterns under its defined commodity scope.
