UNSPSC 85693607: Reposition left ulna with internal fixation device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left ulna with internal fixation device, 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 0PSL34Z

UNSPSC 85693607 Reposition left ulna with internal fixation device, percutaneous approach (Commodity) shows minimal alignment between the code's nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure; however, the recent opportunities posted under this code reflect a broad range of health-benefit administration, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy management, and emergency medical services—none of which involve orthopedic fixation devices or the procedural intervention the code names. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or that the code has been repurposed within certain procurement systems to describe health-services procurement more broadly rather than discrete medical devices or surgical procedures.

The recent opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies spanning municipal pension boards (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), city health-benefit administrators (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county human resources divisions (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and county health systems (County of Santa Clara Health System). Activity is concentrated in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations (due October 16, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers across 14 locations (due October 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara's non-exclusive, multiple-award vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). Given the clear divergence between the code's surgical-procedure nomenclature and the administrative and occupational health services actually being solicited, this code does not represent a reliable procurement vehicle for firms offering orthopedic implants, surgical devices, or procedure-related services.
