UNSPSC 85693827: Insertion of external fixation device into right radius, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of external fixation device into right 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 0PHH35Z

UNSPSC 85693827 Insertion of external fixation device into right radius, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code with no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The five most recent opportunities in the dataset tagged under this code are instead solicitations for inmate medical and pharmacy services (Muscogee County Prison), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), virtual primary and urgent care services (Monroe County), peer support for peer workers (San Mateo County), and fire department medical direction (Santa Monica), none of which align with orthopedic surgical device procurement. This code appears to be a procedural medical classification erroneously applied to broader healthcare contracting opportunities and does not reflect what state and local governments actually buy under its nominal scope.

The mismatch between code name and recent procurement activity suggests that either the code is rarely used in state and local procurement or that opportunities are consistently miscoded when posted. A business development professional in orthopedic device supply, surgical implant distribution, or hospital procurement for musculoskeletal procedures would find no actionable signal in this code's recent activity record. Consider searching alternative UNSPSC codes within the medical supplies and equipment families or confirming code assignment with specific issuing bodies before investing pursuit effort.
