UNSPSC 85694002: Revision of synthetic substitute in left ulna, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in left ulna, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0PWL4JZ

UNSPSC 85694002 Revision of synthetic substitute in left ulna, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual scope of recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code involve medical services administration, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and specialty procedure networks—none of which align with orthopedic surgical procedures on the ulna. The source shows a systematic mismatch between the code's clinical procedure name and the services state and local governments are actually buying under this identifier.

Recent solicitations demonstrate that issuing bodies—including city retirement offices, county health systems, state transportation agencies, and county juvenile justice departments—are using this code to tag health services contracting broadly, rather than for specific surgical interventions. The Washington State Department of Transportation solicited occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office sought independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach requested surgical procedure carve-out and Center of Excellence network management (HR26753, due October 7, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System established a multiple-award qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing across thirteen specialties (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). This code appears to function as a catch-all for health services procurement rather than as a specific orthopedic surgical commodity, and firms pursuing work under it should verify the actual scope in each RFP or RFQ before committing resources to proposal development.
