UNSPSC 85701119: Supplement left acetabulum with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left acetabulum with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0QU50KZ

UNSPSC 85701119 Supplement left acetabulum with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are currently buying under this code classification. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary care and urgent care services, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical directorship — none of which involve orthopedic surgical implants or procedures. The code appears to be a miscategorization in the state and local procurement system; no recent solicitations involve the orthopedic implant or surgical services the code nominally describes.

The geographic spread of recent opportunities posting under this code includes Georgia (Muscogee County Prison medical services), Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management and Monroe County virtual care services), and California (San Mateo County behavioral health peer support and Santa Monica Fire Department medical director), suggesting the misclassification is not concentrated in a single region. Because the code does not currently reflect genuine orthopedic implant procurement activity, business development professionals should verify code assignment directly with issuing bodies rather than relying on this code to surface relevant opportunities in orthopedic surgical products or services.
