This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left ulna with ring external fixation device, 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 0PSL0CZ

UNSPSC 85693113 Reposition left ulna with ring external fixation device, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local procurement opportunities posted under it. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure involving orthopedic fixation, but the recent opportunities solicited under this code reflect health care administration, managed care services, and emergency medical direction — activities bearing no relationship to orthopedic surgery or medical device procurement.

The mismatch between code assignment and actual procurement activity is substantial. Recent opportunities include Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (due April 9, 2026), Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services (due April 16, 2026), San Mateo County's RFP for peer support services for peer workers under Mental Health Services Act funding (due July 2, 2025), and Santa Monica Fire Department's RFP for an EMS medical director (due October 16, 2025). These solicitations span county human resources departments, county health systems, behavioral health divisions, and municipal fire departments across Florida, Georgia, California, and other states — all pursuing managed care administration, telehealth platforms, behavioral health support, and medical governance rather than surgical devices or orthopedic procedures. The code shows little relevant recent activity for vendors with orthopedic fixation or surgical device capabilities.
