UNSPSC 85693408: Extirpation of matter from right humeral head, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right humeral head, 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 0PCC0ZZ

UNSPSC 85693408 Extirpation of matter from right humeral head, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure on the proximal humerus—does not align with the recent solicitations tagged under it. Those opportunities instead span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty medical services for detained youth, and emergency inpatient care. None of these procurements involve the orthopedic surgical procedure the code describes.

The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the state and local procurement sources or that this code is used as a catch-all category for medical services more broadly. Issuers across this set include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of ferries), a county health system (Santa Clara), multiple county jurisdictions (Harris County, Collier County), and two cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), spanning Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington with activity posted between July and September 2026. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years) and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP 20260825, due October 9, 2026, with pre-bid August 31, 2026). Without recent activity that actually matches the procedure code, pursuit under this code should be deferred pending clarification of its actual use in state and local procurement.
