UNSPSC 85693616: Reposition left radius with hybrid external fixation device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left radius with hybrid external fixation device, percutaneous 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 0PSJ3DZ

UNSPSC 85693616 Reposition left radius with hybrid external fixation device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure — orthopedic repositioning of a fractured radius using hybrid external fixation — yet the recent opportunities tagged under it are healthcare services procurement, not surgical implants or devices. The four most recent solicitations from state and local bodies involve comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services (Muscogee County Prison), pharmacy benefit management for county employees (Collier County), virtual primary and urgent care services (Monroe County), peer support services for behavioral health workers (San Mateo County), and fire department medical direction (Santa Monica). None of these solicitations procure the orthopedic surgical devices or procedures the code nominally describes, indicating a taxonomy mismatch rather than active demand for the commodity itself under this code.

The geographic spread of the tagged opportunities spans Florida (Muscogee County/Columbus, Georgia; Collier County), Florida (Monroe County), California (San Mateo County), and California (Santa Monica), with response dates ranging from April 2026 through July 2025. Because the opportunities are not substantively related to the code's scope, the code does not reflect meaningful state and local procurement activity in orthopedic fixation devices or services. This is a quiet signal — the code either sees very limited use in state and local contracting, or it is rarely applied to relevant opportunities when they do occur.
