UNSPSC 85712657: Supplement right elbow joint with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right elbow joint with synthetic substitute, 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 0RUL4JZ

UNSPSC 85712657 Supplement right elbow joint with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure — implantation of a synthetic elbow joint prosthesis via endoscopic technique — yet the five most recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code procure inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical direction. None of these solicitations involve orthopedic implants or joint replacement procedures. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the source data or that the code is being used as a catch-all for healthcare services that do not fit the taxonomy's intended commodity structure.

The few traceable opportunities span multiple states and issuing bodies: the Columbus Consolidated Government (Georgia) issued RFP 26-0008 for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services (due May 15, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) issued RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management serving 2,400 county employees and 4,800 covered members (posted April 9, 2026), Monroe County, Florida Board of County Commissioners issued an RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services covering 2,300 county members (due April 16, 2026), San Mateo County, California issued RFP 2025-007 for peer support services targeting $580,000 in funding (due July 2, 2025), and the Santa Monica Fire Department (California) issued RFP 455 for a medical director (due October 16, 2025). Given the absence of opportunities actually soliciting orthopedic implants or joint replacement services under this code, the code does not currently represent an active area for business development in state and local procurement.
