UNSPSC 85772351: Alteration of right shoulder region with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of right shoulder region with synthetic substitute, 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 0X023JZ

UNSPSC 85772351 Alteration of right shoulder region with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local procurement opportunities in the source material. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent solicitations posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which constitute the performance of right shoulder alteration procedures themselves. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the source data or that state and local procurement offices are tagging medical-administration and benefits-procurement opportunities with a clinical procedure code that does not reflect the actual work being bought.

The geographic distribution of recent activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP for ferry system workers across 14 locations (due October 9, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for a surgical benefit carve-out program emphasizing shoulder and orthopedic procedures (due October 7, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing including orthopedic services (due October 7, 2026). Issuing bodies include state transportation departments, county health systems, city retirement boards, and county probation departments. Without alignment between the code's stated scope and the actual work being solicited, this code shows limited decision relevance for vendors pursuing orthopedic surgical services or clinical procedure work under state and local procurement.
