This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left elbow joint, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0RWM4KZ

UNSPSC 85712617, Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left elbow joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code's clinical specificity — a procedure code for orthopedic surgery — does not match the scope of work appearing in recent opportunities tagged to this code.

The recent opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations, surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state transportation workers, emergency and specialty healthcare services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary ancillary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve revision of tissue substitutes or orthopedic joint procedures. The issuing bodies include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System — a mix of municipal retirement boards, city human resources departments, state transportation agencies, county health systems, and judicial detention authorities. The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. The mismatch between the code's orthopedic surgery focus and the administrative and occupational health services actually being procured suggests this code may be incorrectly applied to these opportunities, or the code's use in state and local procurement systems does not reflect its clinical definition. Business development professionals should verify the intended scope with individual issuing bodies before pursing work under this code designation.
