UNSPSC 85712060: Supplement left shoulder joint with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left shoulder joint with synthetic substitute, 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 0RUK0JZ

UNSPSC 85712060 Supplement left shoulder joint with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent alignment with state and local government procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical implant procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code do not involve procurement of shoulder joint prosthetics or related implant devices. Instead, state and local buyers have tagged opportunities involving occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out programs—none of which involve the direct procurement or implantation of synthetic shoulder joint devices. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual recent solicitations suggests either miscoding on the issuing bodies' part or that shoulder joint implant procurement at the state and local level does not generate visible RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB activity in this dataset.

The recent opportunities span a geographic range including Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida, issued by the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services, due October 16, 2026, with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services with a two-year initial term and optional five-year extension, with proposals due October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference held August 31, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFP (RFSQHHSFY270052) for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026. The code does not show active procurement of shoulder joint implants or related orthopedic devices under state and local contract vehicles.
