This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition 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 0RSJ0ZZ

UNSPSC 85712085 Reposition right shoulder joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure classification, but the recent opportunities tagged under it reflect health benefits administration, medical surveillance, and staffing services rather than orthopedic shoulder surgery. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach sought surgical procedure carve-out benefit management covering shoulder, hip, knee, and other procedures (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026); and the Washington State Department of Transportation Ferries requested occupational medical surveillance services with physician examinations (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (due September 25, 2026), and Collier County sought pharmacy benefit management covering approximately $8.7 million in annual pharmacy spending (RFP 25-8414). Santa Clara County Health System opened a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing across audiology, radiology, orthopedic, and other clinical categories (RFSQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026).

The opportunities span state departments, counties, and municipalities across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no identifiable repeat buyer. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope—a specific orthopedic procedure—and the actual work being solicited suggests the code is either misclassified in the state and local systems tagging it, or carries a broader health-services meaning inconsistent with standard UNSPSC surgical-procedure categorization. The represented work centers on medical benefits procurement, health system staffing, occupational health compliance, and disability evaluation rather than surgical delivery. This code does not reflect active state and local procurement for the shoulder surgery service itself.
