UNSPSC 85693136: Reposition right radius with intramedullary internal fixation device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition right radius with intramedullary internal 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 0PSH06Z

UNSPSC 85693136 Reposition right radius with intramedullary internal fixation device, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows no alignment with that scope. The six most recent opportunities posted against this code span independent medical evaluation services for disability retirement determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary clinical staffing placement — none of which involve orthopedic repositioning or internal fixation devices. This misalignment suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or a data-quality issue within the source material; the code does not reflect active procurement for its nominal medical device or procedure scope.

The recent opportunities do reveal a fragmented issuer base across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, including city retirement boards, municipal employee health plans, state transportation departments, county juvenile justice systems, county health care consortia, and county health systems. No issuer appears in the recent record more than once. Geographic concentration is absent; activity spans the Western and Southern United States with no dominant region. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office issued an RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) at $750,000 over five years; the City of Long Beach issued an RFP for surgical Center of Excellence networks (due October 7, 2026); and the Washington State Department of Transportation issued an RFP for occupational medical surveillance (due October 9, 2026). Vendors evaluating this code should treat the nominal UNSPSC descriptor as unreliable and instead monitor the code's posting activity for actual procurement signals, or confirm coding accuracy with individual issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities.
