UNSPSC 85693415: Excision of left humeral shaft, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left humeral shaft, 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 0PBG0ZZ

UNSPSC 85693415 Excision of left humeral shaft, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual procurement activity tagged under it in state and local sourcing. The code's clinical nomenclature—denoting a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—does not align with the scope of work being solicited by state and local issuers. Recent opportunities posted under this code involve occupational medical surveillance, disability retirement medical evaluations, surgery benefit carve-out management, pharmacy benefit administration, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency/specialty medical services for detained youth. None of these services constitute the performance of humeral shaft excision procedures or other surgical interventions. The mismatch reflects a tagging error in the source data rather than genuine procurement activity for surgical services under this code.

The recent opportunities do span multiple issuing bodies—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System—across Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. However, because the opportunities are wrongly classified under a surgical procedure code, the data does not establish a meaningful market signal for business development in orthopedic surgery services or related work. Practitioners should verify the correct UNSPSC classification for administrative health services, occupational medicine, or benefits management before pursuing opportunities in those categories.
