UNSPSC 85692600: Irregular bones, open approach

This class includes one or more of 17 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the irregular bones with open approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0P.

UNSPSC 85692600 Irregular bones, open approach is a Class code that describes surgical procedures for treating irregular bone fractures or deformities via open surgical access. However, the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code does not align with orthopedic surgical services. Instead, the tagged opportunities reflect healthcare administration and delivery services—inmate medical and pharmacy management, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual solicitations indicates this code shows little relevant recent activity for orthopedic surgical procurement at the state and local level.

The five recent opportunities span correctional healthcare (Muscogee County Prison), county employee health benefits administration (Collier County), municipal virtual care (Monroe County), behavioral health support (San Mateo County), and fire department medical oversight (Santa Monica). No pattern of repeat buying or geographic concentration emerges; the opportunities are geographically dispersed across Georgia, Florida, California, and diverse issuing bodies including county boards of commissioners, county health departments, and municipal fire departments. The solicitations use RFP processes with response dates ranging from April through October 2026 and reflect annual contract values estimated at $95,000 to $8.7 million depending on scope. Absent meaningful recent state and local procurement activity under the stated UNSPSC code for irregular bone surgery, business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for current state and local contracting purposes and monitor whether reclassification or code-tagging corrections occur in future procurement cycles.
