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 0RWLXJZ

UNSPSC 85711826 Revision of synthetic substitute in right elbow joint, external approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its stated orthopedic surgical scope. The six recent opportunities posted to state and local procurement channels under or near this code—spanning Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington—address independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve orthopedic implant procurement, joint revision procedures, or related surgical supply chains.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual buying activity suggests either miscoding by the issuing bodies or that state and local governments do not currently procure orthopedic joint revision implants through UNSPSC channels tracked in the recent-opportunities dataset. The opportunities present reflect broader state and local health-benefit administration, occupational health compliance, and clinical workforce management rather than orthopedic device procurement. Without evidence of recent RFPs, RFQs, or ITBs for elbow joint synthetic substitutes or revision surgical supplies from state departments, counties, cities, school districts, or health authorities, the code appears inactive for business development purposes at this time.
