This 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 7W07X9Z

UNSPSC 85841101 Osteopathic treatment of upper extremities using other method is a Commodity code whose recent state and local activity centers on occupational health examinations, disability medical evaluations, and clinical staffing placements rather than osteopathic manipulation therapy as the code name suggests. State and local buyers under this code include city retirement boards, county health systems, state transportation departments, and county juvenile justice agencies. The scope of work actually being solicited spans occupational medical surveillance with board-certified physicians, independent medical evaluations for public safety pension disability determinations, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical disciplines including audiology, cardiology, orthopedics, and surgical services. Issuing bodies are geographically dispersed across multiple regions and include both large urban jurisdictions and state-level agencies.

Recent opportunities show concentration in Arizona, California, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit applications for police and fire pension boards, with a five-year maximum contract value of $750,000 and performance beginning February 3, 2027. The Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations statewide, requiring board certification in occupational medicine and coverage of baseline, periodic, and exit examinations. The County of Santa Clara Health System posted an RFSQ (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) establishing a non-exclusive qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary categories, with no guaranteed volume and potential five-year list maintenance. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual solicitations—which emphasize occupational health, pension evaluations, and clinical staffing rather than osteopathic treatment—suggests this code has limited relevance to typical osteopathic practice pursuits in state and local procurement.
