UNSPSC 85772317: Insertion of radioactive element into left shoulder region, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of radioactive element into left shoulder region, percutaneous 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 0XH331Z

UNSPSC 85772317 Insertion of radioactive element into left shoulder region, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific interventional radiology procedure—does not align with the actual work appearing in the most recent opportunities tagged under it. Recent solicitations under this code address occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out networks, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, emergency medical services for detained youth, and related benefits administration—none of which involve radioactive element insertion or percutaneous shoulder procedures.

The mismatch between the code's clinical definition and the opportunities actually posted suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or use of this code as a catch-all placeholder for health service procurement. The opportunities span diverse issuing bodies including state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county benefits administrators (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), with recent activity concentrated in California, Florida, Washington, Texas, and Arizona. Without substantive evidence of actual radioactive-element-insertion procurement at the state and local level, this code does not present a viable market segment for business development.
