UNSPSC 85772341: Alteration of right axilla, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of right axilla, 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 0X043ZZ

UNSPSC 85772341 Alteration of right axilla, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose nominal description bears no meaningful relationship to the state and local opportunities currently tagged under it. The recent solicitations reflect healthcare administration and occupational medical services — disability benefit evaluations, surgical benefits management, occupational medical surveillance, emergency youth detention care, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve surgical alteration of the axilla or any surgical procedure. The mismatch between the code's clinical procedure name and the actual work being procured suggests either systematic miscoding or a fundamental divergence between the UNSPSC taxonomy entry and current state and local procurement practice under this code number.

The issuing bodies in recent activity span a city retirement office (City of Phoenix), a large city government (City of Long Beach), a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), a county juvenile justice agency (Harris County), a county board of commissioners (Collier County), and a county health system (Santa Clara County). Geographic spread covers Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (responses due October 16, 2026) and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance at 14 ferry terminals statewide (responses due October 9, 2026, with pre-bid scheduled August 31, 2026). The code shows little decision-relevant activity aligned with its stated scope.
