This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in right shoulder joint, percutaneous 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 0RWJ3JZ

UNSPSC 85712341 Revision of synthetic substitute in right shoulder joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The source materials record six recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to this code, but none of them involve orthopedic surgical procedures or implant services. Instead, the opportunities span occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Ferries), independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs for employee health plans (City of Long Beach), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and temporary ancillary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara Health System). The mismatch between the code's nominal scope—surgical revision of synthetic shoulder joint implants—and the actual work being procured suggests that either the code was applied in error by the posting jurisdictions or that state and local procurement databases are indexing health and medical services under this orthopedic procedure code without specificity to the procedure itself.

The tagged opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies—state departments, counties, and health systems—across multiple states including Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida, with response dates ranging from September through October 2026. However, because none of these opportunities reflects purchasing activity in orthopedic joint revision services, imaging studies, implant management, or related surgical supply chains, this code does not support a meaningful market characterization for firms pursuing state and local contracts in the orthopedic surgical device, surgical services, or healthcare procurement space. Firms evaluating this code should clarify with procurement contacts whether the tagging reflects actual buying intent or a taxonomy misalignment.
