UNSPSC 85692037: Extirpation of matter from left scapula, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter 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 0PC60ZZ

UNSPSC 85692037 Extirpation of matter from left scapula, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The three opportunities posted under this code in the past two months—occupational medical surveillance for Washington State Ferries employees, independent medical evaluation services for Phoenix public safety pension boards, and specialty surgical carve-out benefits for Long Beach city employees—involve clinical evaluation, occupational health monitoring, and bundled procedure networks, none of which correspond to orthopedic surgical extraction or removal procedures on specific anatomical sites. A fourth opportunity from Harris County Juvenile Probation seeks emergency and inpatient hospital services for detained youth, and a fifth from Santa Clara County Health System establishes a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. These solicitations are administrative, occupational health, or workforce staffing in nature and do not reflect procurement of surgical procedures themselves or the supplies and instruments that would typically be acquired under an orthopedic surgical code.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure on the left scapula—and the actual work being solicited suggests either a data-entry error in how opportunities were tagged or that the code itself is not actively used by state and local health systems, counties, municipalities, or transit authorities for routine procurement. No representative surgical procedure acquisition, no orthopedic implant or instrument order, and no surgical supply chain engagement appear in the recent-opportunities record. Absent evidence of active, relevant procurement under this code, pursuit is not supported by current market signals.
