UNSPSC 85772461: Alteration of right shoulder region, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of right shoulder region, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0X024ZZ

UNSPSC 85772461 Alteration of right shoulder region, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows a significant mismatch between its narrow clinical code name and the actual state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code—independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-outs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—do not involve shoulder surgery or any procedure-specific surgical services. Instead, issuers are purchasing broad-spectrum medical administration, evaluation, and staffing services that span multiple clinical domains and administrative functions. The mix of issuing bodies includes city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health departments (Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Ferries), county probation departments (Harris County), county health systems (Santa Clara), and county benefits administrations (Collier County), indicating fragmented procurement across administrative units with no single category of purchaser dominating the code.

Activity is concentrated in Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, due October 16, 2026, with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations, due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ (RFSQHHSFY270052) for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026. The code's taggging appears to reflect administrative or data-entry error rather than substantive surgical procurement; vendors evaluating this code should verify whether opportunities actually match their service lines before committing resources to response.
