UNSPSC 85693137: Reposition right radius with external fixation device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition right radius with 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 0PSH05Z

UNSPSC 85693137 Reposition right radius with external fixation device, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no alignment between its clinical procedure name and the state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The recent solicitations tagged to this code span independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve orthopedic procedures or external fixation devices. The mismatch suggests a classification error in the posting systems or a deliberate but unexplained use of this procedure code as a classifier for broader medical services procurement. No meaningful pattern of work under the code's nominal scope emerges from the recent opportunities.

Activity appears across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington state jurisdictions, but the opportunities are geographically and functionally disparate. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations, with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years. The City of Long Beach issued an RFP (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) for a surgical benefit carve-out program serving approximately 3,800 employees and retirees. The Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFQ (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations. Collier County in Florida solicited pharmacy benefit management services (RFP 25-8414, deadline April 9, 2026) with historical annual pharmacy spending near $8.7 million. Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (due September 25, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System established a multiple-award vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (proposals due October 7, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent procurement activity under its stated clinical scope.
