UNSPSC 85711213: Removal of infusion device from right acromioclavicular joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of infusion device from 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 0RPG03Z

UNSPSC 85711213 "Removal of infusion device from right acromioclavicular joint, open approach" is a Commodity code whose nominal scope describes a surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not reflect orthopedic device removal. Instead, the posting record shows health plan administration, occupational medicine, and healthcare staffing services — work that diverges substantially from the code's clinical procedure name. The few opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluation services for disability retirement determinations, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, specialty surgical benefit carve-outs, emergency and inpatient care for detained youth, and temporary ancillary health professional staffing. None of these align with device removal or upper-extremity orthopedic surgery. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, county health systems and juvenile probation departments, and municipal human resources divisions across multiple states.

Geographic activity is limited to Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, proposals due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services covering 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, proposals due October 9, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence (HR26753, proposals due October 7, 2026), and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management serving approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members. The code shows no active procurement aligned with its stated clinical procedure; the mismatch between the UNSPSC commodity description and actual health plan and occupational medicine work suggests either a data classification error or infrequent use of this code for state and local purchases.
