This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of internal fixation device in right acromioclavicular joint, open 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 0RWG04Z

UNSPSC 85711112 Revision of internal fixation device in right acromioclavicular joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—orthopedic surgical implants and procedures—does not align with the recent opportunities posted under this designation. The most recent opportunities tagged to this code include independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary clinical staffing placement. None of these activities involve the procurement, supply, or installation of internal fixation devices for acromioclavicular joint repair. The mismatch between code name and actual buying activity suggests either systematic miscoding by posting jurisdictions or that this code is rarely used in state and local procurement workflows.

The geographic spread of the recent opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), indicating that the opportunities appearing under this code are not concentrated geographically. The issuing bodies are diverse—municipal retirement offices, city health benefits programs, state transportation departments, county health systems, and county probation departments. Given the absence of opportunities actually soliciting devices or implants under this code's stated scope, business development professionals evaluating the code for orthopedic device or surgical supply sales should treat recent activity as a signal of low purchasing intent for the intended commodity and seek alternative code classifications or direct engagement with state procurement offices to identify the correct taxonomy for acromioclavicular joint fixation products.
