UNSPSC 85711646: Excision of right acromioclavicular joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of right acromioclavicular 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 0RBG4ZZ

UNSPSC 85711646 Excision of right acromioclavicular joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows a significant mismatch between the code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—and the actual work being solicited under it by state and local governments. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not reflect orthopedic surgical procedures but instead cover independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-outs for health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing. These represent healthcare administration, medical procurement coordination, and clinical staffing—not the procedure named in the code. The issuing bodies span city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal employee benefit programs (Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), county health systems (Santa Clara, Collier County), reflecting a wide cross-section of state and local healthcare procurement. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated commodity description.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in the West and Southwest, with recent solicitations from Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. The most representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 ($750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026, and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFP for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. These solicitations use standard state and local procurement vehicles—RFPs and RFQs with pre-bid conferences, questions cycles, and electronic proposal submission—but none align with the code's orthopedic surgical procedure designation.
