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 0RJPXZZ

UNSPSC 85711935 Inspection of left wrist joint, external approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare services — none of which involve inspection of a specific joint through an external anatomical approach. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and what state and local buyers are actually purchasing suggests the code either captures administrative or billing categories unrelated to orthopedic joint examination, or the opportunities are miscoded at posting.

The issuing bodies include a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county agencies (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Santa Clara County Health System), and municipal governments (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Geographic activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida. The most recent substantive opportunity is the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations, with proposals due October 9, 2026 (RFP 20260825). A secondary opportunity is the City of Phoenix's independent medical evaluation services RFP for disability pension determinations, with a $750,000 maximum over five years and proposals due October 16, 2026 (RTMRFP26001). Given the disconnect between the code designation and the work being solicited, activity under this code is not decision-relevant for vendors in joint-inspection or orthopedic services.
