UNSPSC 85711032: Reposition right acromioclavicular joint with internal fixation device, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition right acromioclavicular joint with internal fixation device, external 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 0RSGX4Z

UNSPSC 85711032, Reposition right acromioclavicular joint with internal fixation device, external approach (Commodity), does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes an orthopedic surgical procedure—reposition of the right acromioclavicular joint with internal fixation via external surgical approach—but the recent opportunities in the source material are tagged to this code despite addressing occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical carve-out benefit programs. None of these activities involve performance of the specific acromioclavicular joint procedure the code names. The mismatch suggests a data-quality issue in the underlying opportunity records; the code appears to have been misapplied across a broad range of health-care administration and staffing services rather than orthopedic surgical procedures.

The few opportunities posted show minimal relevant activity under the code's true scope. State and local buyers—including the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System—are procuring medical evaluation services, pharmacy administration, occupational health screening, and staffing support, but none of these align with surgical orthopedic work. Until opportunities reflect actual acromioclavicular joint procedures or related orthopedic surgical services, this code shows no meaningful signal for business development targeting state and local contracts.
