This placement 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 2W4AX5Z

UNSPSC 85801618 Packing of right upper arm using packing material is a Commodity code that has generated minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—medical packing material for upper-arm application—does not align with the work actually being solicited in the recent opportunities associated with it. Instead, the available recent solicitations center on clinical laboratory testing, occupational health screening, medical surveillance, drug testing, and emergency medical response services across mental health facilities, veteran centers, fire departments, school districts, and state agencies. The issuing bodies span state health departments, county commissioners' offices, independent school districts, municipal governments, and specialized public health authorities in jurisdictions including Illinois, Texas, Kentucky, Colorado, Michigan, Nevada, Florida, Georgia, Oregon, and the District of Columbia.

The mismatch between the code's stated commodity definition and the actual recent procurement activity suggests this UNSPSC category either misclassifies these opportunities or sees infrequent relevant solicitation activity. Representative recent opportunities include the Illinois Department of Human Services' IFB for clinical laboratory services at 14 mental health and developmental disability facilities (due August 4, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's lead sample analysis services RFP (due July 31, 2026), and the Commonwealth of Kentucky's multiple medical laboratory services RFPs for veterans centers. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Kentucky, Illinois, and Florida, with secondary activity in Colorado, Michigan, Nevada, and Oregon. The code does not show a pattern of active procurement aligned with the packing-material commodity definition, and business development professionals should verify code assignment before investing pursuit effort on opportunities tagged under 85801618.
