This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of 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 0RGE4ZZ

UNSPSC 85711636, Fusion of right sternoclavicular joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure; however, the recent opportunities tagged under this code do not involve surgical fusion services or orthopedic procedures at all. Instead, they represent broader health-related administrative and staffing services — medical evaluation coordination, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, temporary clinical staffing placement, and surgical benefit carve-out networks — none of which align with the code's surgical-procedure classification. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the opportunities block or that the code is being applied outside its intended scope.

The issuing bodies across these opportunities span state health agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Santa Clara County Health System), and municipalities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award solicitation for temporary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026). Given the substantial disconnect between the code's stated surgical scope and the administrative-services and staffing work actually being solicited, this code does not represent a meaningful procurement category for surgical-services contractors.
