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 0X080ZZ

UNSPSC 85771253 Alteration of right upper arm, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code involve inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical director roles—none of which align with surgical alteration procedures on the upper arm. The code appears to be a medical procedure taxonomy entry misapplied to healthcare service contracting, creating a fundamental mismatch between the code's nominal clinical scope and the work actually being solicited.

State and local procurement professionals evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for contracting purposes at the present time. The opportunities surfacing under the code are administrative and operational healthcare services (PBM management, virtual care platforms, peer support staffing, medical direction) rather than surgical procedures or surgical supply contracts. This divergence suggests either a cataloging error in how issuers are tagging healthcare service RFPs or a code that does not map meaningfully to state and local buying patterns. Monitor the code for future activity, but no current market signal supports pursuit.
