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 0RSM0ZZ

UNSPSC 85712077 Reposition left elbow joint, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local contract activity. The nominal code describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code are for occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability benefit determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical-procedure carve-out benefits — none of which involve the elbow-joint repositioning procedure the code is meant to identify. This mismatch suggests the code was applied incorrectly to these solicitations or the taxonomy assignment does not reflect the actual work being procured.

The opportunities that do appear under this code span diverse issuing bodies including county health systems (Santa Clara, Collier County, Harris County), municipal governments (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), and state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation). The geographic footprint covers Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) focused on disability benefit applications for public safety personnel; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services at ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity for orthopedic surgical procedures and warrants review for recoding accuracy.
