UNSPSC 85772238: Excision of right axilla, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of right axilla, 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 0XB40ZZ

UNSPSC 85772238 Excision of right axilla, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it bear no substantive relationship to that clinical scope. The opportunities instead span pharmacy benefit management, inmate medical and pharmacy services, virtual primary care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction—none of which involve surgical excision. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated definition, and the mismatch suggests that the issuing bodies applied the code inconsistently or in error rather than to solicit the procedure the code purports to name.

The five recent opportunities posted between February and April 2026 originate from disparate issuing bodies: Collier County (Florida) and Monroe County (Florida) Boards of County Commissioners; Columbus Consolidated Government (Georgia); San Mateo County Health (California); and Santa Monica Fire Department (California). Geographic representation centers on Florida and California, with one Georgia opportunity. Representative solicitations include Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (RFP, due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 members (RFP, due April 9, 2026), and Monroe County's RFP for Virtual Primary and Urgent Care Services (RFP, due April 16, 2026). None of these opportunities align with the code's nominal surgical scope, indicating that practitioners should treat this code as inactive for meaningful procurement planning until the tagging error is corrected.
