This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from left temporomandibular 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 0RPD3JZ

UNSPSC 85714942 Removal of synthetic substitute from left temporomandibular joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code with a nominal clinical descriptor that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code shows no recent solicitations for the specific medical procedure named. Instead, recent opportunities posted under this code reflect occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency youth detention healthcare—none of which involve temporomandibular joint procedures. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error or a taxonomic misalignment at the source level. State and local procurement activity tagged to this code does not substantively reflect the procedure the code nominally describes.

The most recent state and local opportunities posted under this code include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, due October 16, 2026, with a $750,000 five-year maximum contract value; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations, due October 9, 2026; the City of Long Beach's RFP (HR26753) for surgical and medical procedure Centers of Excellence carve-out benefits, due October 7, 2026; and Santa Clara County Health System's RFP (RFSQHHSFY270052) for temporary health professional staffing across multiple clinical ancillary categories, due October 7, 2026. Issuing bodies span state departments, county health systems, cities, and municipal retirement boards. Geographic activity centers on Arizona, Washington, California, and Florida. Given the code's nominal scope and the absence of relevant recent solicitations for the specific procedure it describes, pursuit under this code is not recommended without further clarification from the source authority regarding the proper classification.
