This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of external fixation device into left humeral head, percutaneous endoscopic approach.

UNSPSC 85694358 Insertion of external fixation device into left humeral head, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code with minimal recent alignment to state and local procurement activity. The code itself names a specific surgical procedure — orthopedic fixation of the humeral head — but recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code do not solicit that service. Instead, the opportunities reflect a mismatch between the code's nominal scope and what jurisdictions are actually buying: medical evaluation services for disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs and center-of-excellence networks, occupational health surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. None of these services involve insertion of external fixation devices.

The issuing bodies span state departments, counties, and municipal health systems. The Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries) posted the most operationally focused recent opportunity — occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations with response due October 9, 2026. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit applications with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years and response due October 16, 2026. The City of Long Beach requested surgical benefit carve-out proposals due October 7, 2026 covering knee, hip, orthopedic, shoulder, spine, heart, weight loss, and oncology procedures. Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth with response due September 25, 2026. Collier County posted an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services, and Santa Clara County Health System solicited temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical specialties. The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The code shows little relevant recent procurement activity; the opportunities listed represent healthcare administration and staffing rather than orthopedic surgical procedures or device insertion services.
