UNSPSC 85711233: Inspection of left acromioclavicular joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to inspection of left 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 0RJH0ZZ

UNSPSC 85711233, Inspection of left acromioclavicular joint, open approach, is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment with state and local government procurement activity. The code appears designed to classify a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—direct visualization and examination of the acromioclavicular joint during open surgery—yet recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code do not involve orthopedic joint surgery. Instead, the recent opportunities are anchored in occupational health surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, surgical care-out networks for employee health plans, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing, none of which correspond to the code's nominal scope. The issuing bodies represent a mix of state agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and personnel departments (Santa Clara County, Collier County, Harris County), and city retirement and benefits offices (Phoenix, Long Beach), but their work falls outside orthopedic surgical procedure classification.

Recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's request for independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations (RFP, due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance services for ferry system employees across 14 locations (RFP, due October 9, 2026 with pre-bid August 31), the City of Long Beach's surgical procedure carve-out benefits program for employee health plans (RFP, due October 7, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing services across ancillary clinical categories (RFP, due October 7, 2026). The code's present assignment to these opportunities appears misaligned with the underlying procurement intent. Firms pursuing state and local health services or employee benefits work should verify the code against the actual statement of work before relying on this classification for opportunity identification or proposal compliance.
