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

UNSPSC 85694365 Insertion of external fixation device into right humeral head, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the most recent opportunities posted under it span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which involve insertion of external fixation devices or humeral head procedures. This mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in code assignment across multiple jurisdictions or that the code is being used as a catch-all placeholder for health services procurement without regard to its nominal procedure-specific definition.

The issuing bodies across these opportunities include a municipal pension board (City of Phoenix), a city health benefits purchaser (City of Long Beach), a state transportation agency (Washington State Department of Transportation), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County), a county health system (County of Santa Clara), and a county board of commissioners (Collier County), spanning Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. No recent opportunities directly procure the procedure named in the code itself. If pursuing work under this code category, verify that the actual procurement focus aligns with your service line before investing in proposal development, as the current posting pool does not reflect the code's stated scope.
