UNSPSC 42322507: External fixation plate

Plate used in external fixation procedures.

UNSPSC 42322507 External fixation plate is a Commodity code that encompasses orthopedic hardware systems, surgical extraction services, and related instrumentation for trauma and orthopedic surgical procedures. State and local health systems and hospital operators procure under this code on both as-needed and project-basis cycles. Recent solicitations show activity driven by hospital capital projects, acute-care surgical support, and specialized orthopedic procedural services. The issuing bodies include public hospital systems (San Mateo Medical Center), state facility capital projects (State of California), cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multiple jurisdictions (Sourcewell on behalf of participating Washington and Minnesota counties), and school districts procuring instructional equipment and materials for career technical education programs in healthcare sciences tracks. The code reflects a mix of direct clinical procurement, construction-phase equipment supply, and educational program outfitting.
