UNSPSC 85694000: Long bones arm, percutaneous endoscopic approach-part A

This class includes one or more of 17 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the long bones of the arm with percutaneous endoscopic approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0P.

UNSPSC 85694000 Long bones arm, percutaneous endoscopic approach-part A is a Class code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope—orthopedic surgical procedures—and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's recent solicitations instead capture medical evaluation, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, specialty medical networks, and temporary health professional staffing services, none of which involve percutaneous endoscopic procedures on long bones. The solicitations do reflect genuine state and local health-care contracting activity, but they fall outside the procedural medical device or surgical service scope the UNSPSC code nominally describes.

Issuing bodies under the code span state departments, county health systems, county pension boards, and municipalities. The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) on behalf of Washington State Ferries, the City of Phoenix Retirement Office on behalf of pension boards, the City of Long Beach, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, and the County of Santa Clara Health System all posted opportunities in recent months. The geographic spread includes Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) with a five-year maximum contract value of $750,000; WSDOT's occupational medical surveillance RFP for ferry system employees across 14 Washington locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); and Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical specialties (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity; procurement activity tagged to it does not reflect the orthopedic surgical procedure scope the UNSPSC designation implies.
