UNSPSC 85693674: Replacement of left humeral shaft with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left humeral shaft 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 0PRG3JZ

UNSPSC 85693674 Replacement of left humeral shaft with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows a fundamental mismatch between its nominal scope and actual state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent solicitations posted under it reflect administrative and occupational health services that bear no clinical relationship to humeral shaft replacement surgery.

The recent activity under this code includes independent medical evaluation services for disability retirement determinations (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, RFP due October 16, 2026), surgical benefit carve-out management for government employees (City of Long Beach, RFP due October 7, 2026), occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers (Washington State Department of Transportation, RFP due October 9, 2026), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, RFI due September 25, 2026), and pharmacy benefit management administration (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, RFP due April 9, 2026). These represent procurement by state health departments, county human resources and health agencies, and municipal retirement boards across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The code appears to have been applied erroneously to administrative healthcare contracting rather than surgical device or procedure supply. Given this classification mismatch and the absence of any recent state or local solicitation for the procedure itself, this code shows no relevant recent activity for vendors supplying orthopedic surgical implants or orthopedic surgical services.
