This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of infusion device in right shoulder joint, open 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 0RWJ03Z

UNSPSC 85712045 Revision of infusion device in right shoulder joint, open approach is a Commodity code showing little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure — orthopedic revision of a shoulder infusion device — yet the recent opportunities posted under this code do not match that scope. Instead, the tagged solicitations span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluation services, surgical carve-out benefit programs, and youth detention healthcare services. These are administrative healthcare procurement and staffing activities, not device implantation or orthopedic revision work. The mismatch suggests either tagging error in the state and local procurement systems or that the code is being repurposed to classify broader healthcare contracting activity rather than specific surgical procedures.

The limited recent opportunities span multiple issuing bodies — the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and Santa Clara County Health System (California) — with no repeat buyers across the sample. Geographic activity is scattered across Arizona, California, Texas, Florida, and Washington, with no concentration in any single state or region. Representative recent opportunities include the Phoenix Fire Pension Board and Phoenix Police Pension Board's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (response due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits for its Anthem PPO plan (response due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (response due October 9, 2026, pre-bid conference scheduled August 31, 2026). Given the disconnect between the code's stated orthopedic scope and the healthcare administrative and staffing work actually being solicited, this code merits review before pursuing opportunities tagged under it.
