UNSPSC 85693571: Supplement right humeral head with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right humeral head with synthetic substitute, percutaneous 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 0PUC3JZ

UNSPSC 85693571 Supplement right humeral head with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes an orthopedic surgical procedure involving prosthetic shoulder replacement, yet the recent opportunities tagged under this code reflect medical administration, health benefits management, occupational health surveillance, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve implantable medical devices or surgical procedure delivery. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the sourcing system or that state and local procurement offices are using this code as a catch-all for healthcare service categories outside its defined scope.

The six recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas, across city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health systems (Long Beach, Santa Clara), state transportation agencies (Washington), county juvenile justice (Harris County), and county benefits administration (Collier County). No issuing body appears in more than one solicitation. The opportunities themselves address independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations ($750,000 maximum over five years, Phoenix, RFP due October 16, 2026), surgical benefit carve-out networks for municipal employees (Long Beach, RFP due October 7, 2026), occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers (Washington State Department of Transportation, proposals due October 9, 2026), emergency medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, RFI due September 25, 2026), pharmacy benefit management covering 2,400 employees (Collier County, RFP deadline April 9, 2026), and temporary ancillary clinical staffing across audiology, radiology, respiratory care, and surgical services (Santa Clara Health System, non-exclusive qualified-vendor pool, proposals due October 7, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity in the orthopedic implant or surgical device category that its name implies.
