UNSPSC 85695617: Reposition left carpal, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left carpal, 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 0PSN4ZZ

UNSPSC 85695617 Reposition left carpal, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that has seen virtually no alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs for employee health plans, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which match the orthopedic hand surgery procedure named in the code. The mismatch suggests a tagging or classification error in the source data rather than legitimate procurement volume under the surgical procedure itself.

The recent opportunities do reflect medical and health services buying across state departments, counties, and municipal health systems, but not the specific procedure or any consistent scope of work. The Washington State Department of Transportation and Washington State Ferries posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry locations due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office requested proposals for disability medical record summary and independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System issued an RFQ to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical specialties due October 7, 2026. Collier County, Florida issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services, and the City of Long Beach issued an RFP for a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program. These opportunities indicate that state and local health procurement is active, but the UNSPSC 85695617 code classification does not reflect what is actually being bought or solicited.
