UNSPSC 85694249: Removal of external fixation device from right humeral head, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of external fixation device from right humeral head, 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 0PPC45Z

UNSPSC 85694249, Removal of external fixation device from right humeral head, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its clinical procedure title and the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this code designation. The recent opportunities posted against this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations for pension benefits, surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which involve orthopedic surgical device removal. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, state transportation departments, county health systems, county commissioners, and county juvenile probation departments. This mismatch suggests either a classification error in how state procurement offices have tagged these opportunities or a code misapplication in the source data; the code itself does not reflect the actual medical services, staffing arrangements, and benefit administration work being purchased.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with individual opportunities from Phoenix's pension boards (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), Long Beach's employee benefits program (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026), Washington State Department of Transportation's ferries occupational medical surveillance (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department's youth detention medical services (RFI 071626BNM, due September 25, 2026), Collier County's pharmacy benefit management (RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's temporary health professional staffing pool (RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Given the absence of opportunities directly matching the code's stated scope—orthopedic surgical procedures involving external fixation device removal—this code shows little relevant recent activity for firms focused on surgical device services or related orthopedic contracting.
