UNSPSC 85693740: Removal of internal fixation device from right humeral shaft, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of internal fixation device from right humeral shaft, 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 0PPF34Z

UNSPSC 85693740 Removal of internal fixation device from right humeral shaft, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal clinical scope and the actual state and local procurement activity recorded under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not involve surgical removal of orthopedic hardware; instead, they span occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical center-of-excellence carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in detention. This misalignment suggests either systematic miscoding in the state and local procurement system or that the code is being applied as a catch-all category for broader medical evaluation and procedure-management services rather than a specific surgical intervention.

The issuing bodies across these opportunities include city retirement offices, county commissioners' boards, state transportation departments, county health systems, and county probation departments—reflecting a scatter of municipal, county, and state-level health and human services purchasing. Geographic concentration includes Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington State (WSDOT), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) covering disability medical record review and psychiatric examinations with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) requiring occupational medicine board certification across 14 ferry service locations; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award solicitation for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) across 13 ancillary clinical categories. No activity directly related to orthopedic surgical device removal appears in the recent record.
