UNSPSC 85693065: Supplement right humeral shaft with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right humeral shaft with synthetic substitute, 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 0PUF0JZ

UNSPSC 85693065 Supplement right humeral shaft with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes an orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent solicitation activity posted under this code reflects health care administration, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the implantation of humeral shaft prosthetics. State and local procurement offices have tagged six opportunities to this code between July and September 2026, yet none solicit surgical supplies, devices, or implantable prosthetics.

The misclassification suggests either a cataloging error or that the UNSPSC taxonomy does not capture the actual procurement category state and local buyers are using for these services. The issuing bodies span city retirement systems (City of Phoenix), municipal benefits administration (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county corrections and health systems (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), creating a fragmented issuing-body profile across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Activity is recent and geographically dispersed, but procurement volumes, set-aside designations, and contract values under this particular code cannot be reliably inferred from misaligned solicitations. Bidders should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before pursuing opportunities tagged to this code, as the mismatch suggests either data-quality issues or that the code is not the intended classification for these service categories.
