UNSPSC 85772268: Alteration of right shoulder region with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of right shoulder region with nonautologous tissue 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 0X020KZ

UNSPSC 85772268, Alteration of right shoulder region with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 involving shoulder tissue replacement using non-autologous material in an open surgical approach — a medical procedure classification — yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, pension disability medical evaluations, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty surgical networks for carve-out benefits. These solicitations address healthcare administration, network management, and medical staffing services rather than the direct delivery of the shoulder surgery procedure itself. The mismatch reflects either miscoding by issuing bodies or a data artifact that renders this code unsuitable for vendors pursuing direct surgical service delivery.

The recent opportunities show activity across diverse state and local jurisdictions: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Response dates cluster in September and October 2026, with the Phoenix RFP due October 16, 2026, the Long Beach RFP due October 7, 2026, and the WSDOT RFP due October 9, 2026. Given the taxonomic mismatch between the code's stated scope and the actual work being solicited, this code does not represent a coherent procurement category for business development purposes in the surgical services market.
