UNSPSC 85714805: Inspection of right temporomandibular joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to inspection of right temporomandibular 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 0RJC0ZZ

UNSPSC 85714805 Inspection of right temporomandibular joint, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with actual state and local procurement activity in the available opportunities. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent solicitations posted under this classification cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which involve temporomandibular joint inspection or the operative procedures the code describes. State and local procurement offices appear to have misclassified these opportunities or are using this code as a catch-all for health services contracting outside its intended scope.

The issuing bodies in the recent opportunities span diverse jurisdictions: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (pension administration), the City of Long Beach (municipal employee benefits), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational health), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (detention health services), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (county employee pharmacy benefits), and Santa Clara County Health System (temporary clinical staffing). Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) covering medical record review and scheduling for approximately 75 annual disability pension applications, and Washington State Ferries' RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) requiring examinations across 14 ferry locations. The code shows material recent activity but exhibits significant misalignment between its nominal definition and the work state and local governments are actually buying under it.
