UNSPSC 85693845: Insertion of monoplanar external fixation device into left humeral head, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of monoplanar external fixation device into left humeral head, 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 0PHD3BZ

UNSPSC 85693845 Insertion of monoplanar external fixation device into left humeral head, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal medical device scope. The code's most recent state and local opportunities are tagged to healthcare administration, occupational medical surveillance, and clinical staffing — work that does not align with orthopedic surgical device procurement. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona) posted an RFP in September 2026 for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations, and the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance across ferry system locations, neither of which involves orthopedic fixation devices. The County of Santa Clara Health System and Collier County also posted opportunities for clinical staffing and pharmacy benefit management respectively, further demonstrating a disconnect between the code's nominal device classification and the work actually being sourced under this code number.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Arizona, Washington State, California, Florida, and Texas, but the opportunities posted under this code do not reflect procurement of monoplanar external fixation devices or related orthopedic hardware. The Washington State Ferries solicitation (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) sought occupational medical surveillance with a pre-bid conference scheduled for August 31, 2026, while the City of Phoenix solicitation (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) called for disability medical record review and physician examination coordination with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years. The mismatch between the code's title and the actual work sourced under it suggests either a data-entry error in the tagging system or that this code is not actively used for its intended commodity scope in recent state and local procurement.
