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 0WP5XYZ

UNSPSC 85763908 Removal of other device from lower jaw, external approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—surgical removal of jaw devices—does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to it. The posted solicitations cover occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical Center of Excellence networks, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare services. None of these activities involve oral or maxillofacial surgery or device removal. The code shows little relevant recent activity; the tagged opportunities appear to reflect a classification mismatch rather than authentic procurement demand under this code's intended scope.

The six most recent opportunities originate from four states (Washington, California, Arizona, and Florida) and span diverse issuing bodies including state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), and municipalities (Phoenix, Long Beach). The only opportunity with direct connection to the code's nominal medical specialty is Harris County Juvenile Probation Department's RFI for specialty and emergency medical services (posted August 24, 2026, responses due September 25, 2026), which remains broadly scoped with no contract value, incumbent, or term specified. Practitioners evaluating this code should treat the current posting activity as misaligned with the code's intended commodity scope and verify classification before pursuing opportunities tagged to it.
