UNSPSC 85711432: Fusion of left sternoclavicular joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of left sternoclavicular joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous 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 0RGF3KZ

UNSPSC 85711432 Fusion of left sternoclavicular joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope—a highly specific orthopedic surgical procedure—does not align with the state and local contract opportunities recently tagged under it. The six most recent solicitations in the activity block span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these opportunities involve sternoclavicular joint fusion or the implantation of nonautologous tissue substitutes in any operative context. The mismatch suggests either a taxonomy-coding error at the point of posting or a systematic drift in how this code is being applied in state and local procurement systems.

The issuing bodies include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and municipal systems (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach). Geographic activity is spread across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no concentration in any single state or region. Without opportunities that actually match the code's surgical procedure definition, no actionable market signal exists for firms seeking to pursue sternoclavicular joint fusion or related implant work under UNSPSC 85711432 in state and local procurement.
