UNSPSC 85773137: Excision of left hand, 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 0XBK0ZZ

UNSPSC 85773137 Excision of left hand, open approach (Commodity) shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code reflect healthcare administration and service delivery procurement — inmate medical services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve surgical excision or hand surgery. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in how opportunities were tagged or a fundamental misalignment between the code's clinical scope and the work state and local buyers are actually seeking.

The recent opportunities span county corrections systems, county human resources and benefits divisions, county health departments, and specialized district fire departments across Florida, Georgia, and California. Columbus Consolidated Government issued an RFP for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026), Collier County issued an RFP for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services (due April 9, 2026), Monroe County issued an RFP for Virtual Primary & Urgent Care Services (due April 16, 2026), San Mateo County Health issued an RFP for Peer Support services under MHSA Innovation (due July 2, 2025), and Santa Monica Fire Department issued an RFP for a Fire Department Medical Director (due October 16, 2025). No procurement activity under this code reflects surgical services, hand surgery, or operative procedures. Buyers pursuing work aligned with the code's nominal definition should verify categorization before investing in pursuit strategy.
