UNSPSC 85712145: Removal of infusion device from right wrist joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of infusion device from right wrist 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 0RPN03Z

UNSPSC 85712145 (Removal of infusion device from right wrist joint, open approach) is a Commodity code that carries a clinical procedure descriptor, yet the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to it show minimal alignment with this specific surgical intervention. The code's nominal scope—a surgical procedure—does not match the actual work being solicited under it by state and local buyers. Recent opportunities instead span occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical record summary and independent medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories, specialty surgical and medical procedure carve-out networks, and emergency and inpatient hospital services for youth in custody. These represent health administration, staffing, and facility-based care delivery rather than the infusion-device removal procedure the code nominally describes.

The issuing bodies are geographically dispersed state health departments and county governments: the Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and Santa Clara County Health System (California). Only the Washington State Ferries and Collier County opportunities align substantively with clinical or occupational health procurement; the Phoenix and Long Beach solicitations focus on pension disability determinations and health plan benefit design. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned to its stated procedural scope, indicating either a data classification mismatch or limited current state and local demand for this specific surgical intervention.
