UNSPSC 85701100: Bones pelvis, open approach-part A

This class includes one or more of 17 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the bones of the pelvis with open approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0Q.

UNSPSC 85701100 Bones pelvis, open approach-part A is a Class code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The five most recent opportunities tagged under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county correctional facility, pharmacy benefit management for a county employee health plan, virtual primary and urgent care services for a county workforce, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical director services—none of which involve orthopedic surgical procedures, bone grafting, pelvis fracture repair, or any work reasonably construed as the open surgical approach to pelvic bone treatment that the code nominally describes. The mismatch between the code's clinical meaning and the opportunities actually posted suggests either systematic miscoding by state and local procurement offices or that this code is not actively used for its intended scope in the state and local market.

The procurement offices that have tagged opportunities here—Columbus Consolidated Government in Georgia, Collier County in Florida, Monroe County in Florida, San Mateo County in California, and Santa Monica Fire Department in California—appear to have applied this orthopedic surgical procedure code to healthcare management and staffing RFPs that do not involve surgical supplies, implants, or procedural services. Unless the source material is incomplete or the tagging represents a systematic categorization error at the state level, this code does not represent an active buying category for state and local agencies pursuing bone and pelvis surgical work. Vendors in the orthopedic surgical supply, medical devices, or surgical staffing sectors should not rely on this code for market research or opportunity identification in the state and local space.
