UNSPSC 85692144: Reposition sternum, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition sternum, percutaneous 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 0PS03ZZ

UNSPSC 85692144 Reposition sternum, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal surgical procedure scope. The recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code consist of prison healthcare contracting, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary care services, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve sternum repositioning procedures or orthopedic surgery. This substantial mismatch between the code's intended scope and the work actually being solicited suggests either a data-tagging error in state and local procurement systems or a fundamental misalignment between UNSPSC taxonomy and how these jurisdictions classify healthcare services procurement.

The opportunities present across four states — Georgia (Muscogee County Prison inmate medical and pharmacy services, RFP 26-0008, due May 15, 2026), Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management, RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026, and Monroe County virtual primary and urgent care services, due April 16, 2026), California (San Mateo County peer support for peer workers, due July 2, 2025), and California (Santa Monica Fire Department medical director, due October 16, 2025) — but they cluster around administrative health plan services, behavioral health support, and emergency medical services direction rather than surgical procedures. State and local procurement offices should verify code assignment if pursuing opportunities under this classification, as the current tagging does not reflect the procedural or clinical scope UNSPSC 85692144 nominally describes.
