UNSPSC 85711618: Insertion of spacer into right sternoclavicular joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of spacer into right sternoclavicular joint, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0RHE48Z

UNSPSC 85711618 "Insertion of spacer into right sternoclavicular joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach" is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local procurement activity indexed under it. Recent opportunities posted under this code show no actual procurement of orthopedic surgical procedures or implants; instead, the sourced records document requests for independent medical evaluation services, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. These solicitations span entirely different clinical and administrative service domains unrelated to joint spacer insertion and do not represent the scope the code nominally describes.

The geographic and issuing-body spread across the opportunities reflects general state and local government healthcare procurement rather than activity specific to this code's stated procedure. Recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation (Washington), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and Santa Clara County Health System (California). The mismatch between the code's orthopedic surgical procedure name and the administrative healthcare services actually being solicited indicates that this code shows little relevant recent activity for the specific work described in its title.
