UNSPSC 85771239: Alteration of right lower arm with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of right lower arm with synthetic substitute, 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 0X0D0JZ

UNSPSC 85771239 Alteration of right lower arm with synthetic substitute, open approach, a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The UNSPSC taxonomy classifies a specific surgical procedure—prosthetic reconstruction of the right lower arm using an open surgical approach—yet none of the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code involve direct procurement of prosthetic implants, orthopedic surgical supplies, or related medical devices. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code cover occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations, surgical procedure carve-out benefit administration, and emergency medical services for detained youth. These are administrative, staffing, or benefit-management services, not the procurement of prosthetic components or surgical reconstruction services the code nominally describes.

The mismatch between the code's surgical-procedure specificity and the actual work being solicited suggests either miscoding at the state and local level or that this code does not reflect how state and local procurement offices are currently buying or contracting for prosthetic-related services. No issuing body appears more than once across these opportunities, and the jurisdictions span Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington State (Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County). Without opportunities that directly align with the code's scope, the activity does not support a meaningful pursue recommendation.
