UNSPSC 85693226: Replacement of left clavicle with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left clavicle 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 0PRB0JZ

UNSPSC 85693226 Replacement of left clavicle with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not map to recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the most recent opportunities posted under this UNSPSC designation are for independent medical evaluation services, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-outs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which involve clavicle replacement surgery or implantable medical devices. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being tagged under it reflects a classification error in the underlying state and local procurement database rather than active solicitation of orthopedic implant services.

The issuing bodies posting opportunities under this code span state health agencies, county health systems, and municipal retirement boards across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. A business development professional evaluating whether to pursue work under UNSPSC 85693226 should treat recent activity as unreliable guidance on actual buying patterns and either verify the code assignment with individual procurement offices or research orthopedic implant opportunities under alternative UNSPSC codes that align more directly with surgical devices and supplies.
