UNSPSC 85771160: Excision of right upper arm, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of right upper arm, 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 0XB80ZZ

UNSPSC 85771160 Excision of right upper arm, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this classification reflect healthcare administration, benefit management, and emergency services contracting—not surgical services or procedural delivery. Columbus Consolidated Government's Finance Department solicited comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services for Muscogee County Prison through RFP No. 26-0008 (due May 15, 2026); Collier County Procurement Services issued RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members (due April 9, 2026); and Monroe County sought virtual primary and urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members through an RFP due April 16, 2026. These opportunities represent corrections healthcare contracting, municipal pharmacy administration, and telehealth platform procurement—categories distinctly outside the code's surgical nomenclature.

The issuing bodies span county governments (Muscogee County, Collier County, Monroe County), municipal fire departments (Santa Monica), and county behavioral health divisions (San Mateo County). Activity appears concentrated in Florida and Georgia, with secondary opportunities in California. The disconnect between the code name and actual buying behavior signals either a data entry error in the state or local procurement system or a systematic misclassification. No recent solicitations for surgical excision, amputation, or upper-extremity surgical procedures appear in the block. Vendors evaluating this code should verify the correct UNSPSC classification with procurement officers before pursuing opportunities, as the current tagging appears unreliable for forecasting demand or identifying relevant competitive activity.
