UNSPSC 85693820: Insertion of external fixation device into left radius, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of external fixation device into left radius, 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 0PHJ35Z

UNSPSC 85693820 Insertion of external fixation device into left radius, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities posted between July and September 2026 in the source—including independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out benefits for government employees, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—do not match the specific orthopedic surgical procedure named in the code. The code appears designed to classify a particular clinical intervention (percutaneous external fixation of a left radial fracture) rather than a product, service, or procurement category that state and local governments routinely solicit through RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB channels. State and local health systems, counties, and municipalities purchase healthcare services, medical staffing, and benefit management through the opportunities shown here, but none of these solicitations reference procurement of specific surgical procedures by code.

No evidence in the source supports active state and local procurement demand under this code. The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the nature of state and local government purchasing—which focuses on managed services, staffing, benefits administration, and contracted provider networks rather than billing or coding for individual procedures—suggests this code may not represent a viable procurement category for business development purposes.
