This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of internal fixation device in right pelvic bone, open 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 0QW204Z

UNSPSC 85701118, Revision of internal fixation device in right pelvic bone, open approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The solicitations tagged under this code—independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—do not align with the orthopedic surgical-device scope the code name describes. None of the opportunities involve orthopedic implants, pelvic bone fixation devices, or surgical device procurement. The mismatch between code classification and actual work solicited suggests either a data-entry error in the state and local procurement systems or a misapplication of the UNSPSC taxonomy to these opportunities.

The recent opportunities span multiple states and issuing bodies—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California)—but address healthcare workforce contracting, benefit administration, and occupational health rather than medical devices or orthopedic surgery. Bidders should verify the correct UNSPSC code before pursuing any of these opportunities, as the current classification does not reflect the actual procurement activity.
