This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from left humeral shaft, 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 0PPG4JZ

UNSPSC 85694232, Removal of synthetic substitute from left humeral shaft, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—does not align with the state and local health care solicitations recently tagged under it. The most recent opportunities posted under this code instead solicit independent medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth—none of which involves the removal of synthetic implants or represent orthopedic surgical delivery.

The mismatch between the code's procedural specificity and the actual work being solicited suggests either a tagging error in the underlying data or a category misalignment in the state and local procurement systems now using it. Issuers include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation's ferry division, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no dominant jurisdiction. Until the code is corrected or recent opportunities more closely aligned with orthopedic implant removal surface in state and local notices, the code presents limited pursuit opportunity for vendors in surgical services or implant management.
