UNSPSC 85694418: Excision of right humeral head, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of 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 0PBC4ZZ

UNSPSC 85694418 Excision of right humeral head, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that bears no relationship to state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities block. The code describes a specific surgical procedure—orthopedic surgery performed on the shoulder—and is clinically specific to the point that it would apply only to direct provision of that single surgery by a healthcare facility or surgeon. The six recent state and local solicitations posted between July and September 2026 seek medical services administration, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, hospital services coordination, surgical benefit program management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve performing or procuring the named procedure as a line item or bundled service. State and local governments do not solicit surgical procedures by UNSPSC code; they procure health services infrastructure, benefits administration, staffing, and care coordination. This code shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement.

The mismatch suggests a data classification error in the source material. Buyers in the recent opportunities—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System—are procuring services that would more likely appear under UNSPSC families addressing healthcare service delivery, benefits administration, or staffing, not under a surgical procedure Commodity code. Practitioners should not expect meaningful opportunities under this code in state and local procurement channels.
