UNSPSC 85782815: Removal of other device from left lower extremity, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of other device from left lower extremity, external 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 0YPBXYZ

UNSPSC 85782815 Removal of other device from left lower extremity, external approach is a Commodity code whose clinical taxonomy label does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The opportunities posted under this code reflect procurement of occupational and occupational-health medical surveillance services, independent medical evaluations for disability benefit determinations, surgical and specialty medical procedure carve-outs, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve the removal of devices from extremities. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error in the state and local procurement systems or a temporary indexing problem in how these opportunities were tagged.

The issuing bodies include a state department of transportation, county health systems, city retirement offices, and a county juvenile probation department. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office is seeking independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit applications (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation is procuring occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); the City of Long Beach is requesting surgical procedure carve-out benefits management (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing (RFP RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Geographic activity spans Arizona, Washington, California, and Florida. Because the code's nominal scope bears no relationship to these actual procurement needs, the code shows little actionable market signal for vendors specializing in extremity device removal.
