UNSPSC 85711149: Reposition left sternoclavicular joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left sternoclavicular 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 0RSF0ZZ

UNSPSC 85711149 Reposition left sternoclavicular joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure — orthopedic repositioning of the left sternoclavicular joint via open surgical approach — yet the recent opportunities tagged under it span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out networks, and pediatric detention healthcare services. None of these solicitations involve the orthopedic surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the source data or use of the code as a catch-all taxonomy marker for health services generally rather than for this specific procedure.

No state and local opportunities in the source material actually solicit the work that UNSPSC 85711149 purports to cover. The tagged opportunities reflect administrative, benefits management, and occupational health functions issued by Phoenix, Long Beach, Washington State Ferries, Harris County, Collier County, and Santa Clara County — all distinct jurisdictions with different procurement cycles and service needs — but none involve orthopedic surgical repositioning. Without recent opportunities genuinely matching the code's nominal scope, this code offers no decision-relevant signal for business development professionals seeking to pursue state and local work in surgical orthopedics.
