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 0XBH3ZZ

UNSPSC 85773223 Excision of left wrist region, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with state and local procurement activity reflected in recent opportunities. The code nominates a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent solicitations tagged under it—independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance services, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—do not involve surgical excision of the wrist or any orthopedic surgical procedure. State and local governments use this code to classify health service contracting far more broadly than the code's nominal name suggests. The issuing bodies span city retirement offices, municipal HR departments managing employee benefits, state transportation agencies, county juvenile justice departments, county human resources divisions, and county health systems. What is actually being procured ranges from independent medical examinations and record review to pharmacy administration, employee health plan benefits management, occupational health surveillance, and temporary staffing placement across multiple clinical ancillary roles.

Recent activity concentrates in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office issued RFP RTMRFP26001 (due October 16, 2026) for independent medical evaluation services—medical record summary and scheduling of disability examinations for approximately 75 annual applications under Arizona's Public Safety Personnel Retirement System, with a five-year term and maximum compensation of $750,000. The City of Long Beach issued RFP HR26753 (due October 7, 2026) for a surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit program offering Centers of Excellence for knee, hip, orthopedic, shoulder, spine, heart, weight loss, and oncology procedures for approximately 3,800 enrolled employees and retirees. The Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of Washington State Ferries, issued RFP RFP20260825 (due October 9, 2026) for occupational medical surveillance services including baseline, periodic, follow-up, and exit examinations for four personnel categories at 14 Washington locations, with a two-year term and option to extend.
