UNSPSC 85771643: Alteration of left upper arm with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of left upper arm with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0X094JZ

UNSPSC 85771643 Alteration of left upper arm with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the state and local procurement activity actually occurring under this classification. The recent opportunities posted to this code center on occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical care network management, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which align with the orthopedic surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either a systematic miscoding issue or that the UNSPSC category is being used as a catch-all for health services procurement without regard to the code's actual clinical specification. State and local buyers posting under this code include county retirement boards, state departments of transportation, county health systems, county commissions, and county juvenile justice departments.

Recent activity appears across Arizona, Washington, California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with no geographic concentration. Representative current opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) supporting disability determinations for approximately 75 annual public safety personnel retirement applications at $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); the County of Santa Clara Health System's multi-award pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026); and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual spending near $8.7 million (258414, due April 9, 2026). The code shows active procurement volume but warrants clarification of intended scope before pursuing opportunities posted under this number.
