UNSPSC 85693646: Reposition left humeral head with monoplanar external fixation device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left humeral head with monoplanar external 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 0PSD3BZ

UNSPSC 85693646 (Reposition left humeral head with monoplanar external fixation device, percutaneous approach) is a Commodity code tagged to clinical orthopedic procedures, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not match the specific surgical intervention the code describes. Instead, the solicitations cover occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency youth detention medical services—none of which involve orthopedic surgery or external fixation devices. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. State and local jurisdictions posting under this code include city retirement offices, county health systems, state transportation departments, county probation departments, and county human resources divisions, reflecting a broad and unrelated mix of healthcare administration and occupational health programs rather than orthopedic surgical services.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in Arizona, California, and Washington based on recent postings, with individual opportunities from the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Phoenix Fire and Police Pension Boards), the City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation (Washington State Ferries across 14 locations statewide), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of Commissioners (Florida), and Santa Clara County Health System (California). Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (response due October 16, 2026) focused on disability benefit determinations and medical record summaries for approximately 75 annual applications, and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across ferry system locations statewide (response due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026). The code's tagging appears misaligned with actual procurement activity, suggesting either miscoding at the source or that this code is not a primary vehicle for state and local medical device or surgical service procurement.
