This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of internal fixation device from right clavicle, external 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 0PP9X4Z

UNSPSC 85692986 Removal of internal fixation device from right clavicle, external approach is a Commodity code that does not match the state and local procurement activity recently solicited under it. The five most recent opportunities posted under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county correctional facility, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services for county members, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical director services. None of these solicitations involve orthopedic surgical procedures, clavicle fixation removal, or related surgical supplies or instrumentation. The mismatch suggests that this code has been misapplied in state and local procurement systems or that the opportunities have been tagged incorrectly at the commodity level.

The recent activity across these opportunities shows issuing bodies including county governments (Muscogee County in Georgia, Collier County in Florida, Monroe County in Florida, and Santa Mateo County in California) and municipal fire departments (Santa Monica, California). The opportunities posted between February and April 2026 are predominantly RFPs with response deadlines ranging from April 9, 2026 to July 2, 2025. Geographic spread includes Georgia, Florida, and California. Because the code's nominal scope bears no relation to the actual work being solicited—which encompasses healthcare administration, clinical services management, and medical direction rather than orthopedic implant removal—this code does not represent a meaningful procurement pathway for vendors in the surgical or medical device supply chain.
