UNSPSC 85694402: Extirpation of matter from right ulna, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right 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 0PCK4ZZ

UNSPSC 85694402 Extirpation of matter from right ulna, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with actual state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope describes a surgical procedure on a specific anatomical site, but the recent opportunities posted under this code cover occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-outs for health plans, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which involve ulnar procedures or surgical extirpation. This code shows no relevant recent state and local contract activity.

The issuing bodies in the recent-opportunities record span county governments (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), cities (City of Long Beach), and state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation). The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. The mismatch between the code's clinical descriptor and the medical administration, staffing, and benefit-management work actually being solicited indicates either a classification error in the posted opportunities or a fundamental disconnect between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how these state and local buyers have tagged their health services procurements.
