UNSPSC 85692203: Repair left rib, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair left rib, 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 0PQ23ZZ

UNSPSC 85692203 Repair left rib, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity assigned to it. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure; however, the recent solicitations tagged under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, disability medical evaluations, surgical center-of-excellence carve-outs for employee health plans, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve rib repair or percutaneous surgical intervention. The mismatch suggests the code has been misapplied to these opportunities or the taxonomy is not capturing the actual clinical work being purchased.

No recent state and local procurement activity directly matches the nominal scope of rib repair services under this Commodity code. The opportunities posted between July and October 2026 — from the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, 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 — are structured as administrative and staffing procurements within health systems and pension benefit programs, not surgical procedures. The code warrants review by the issuing agencies for proper taxonomy alignment or consolidation under a more appropriate classification tier.
