UNSPSC 85701155: Replacement of right pelvic bone with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right pelvic bone with synthetic 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 0QR20JZ

UNSPSC 85701155 Replacement of right pelvic bone with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this taxonomy designation. The recent opportunities tagged to this code reflect a mismatch: the code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure (pelvic bone replacement), yet the opportunities posted under it—independent medical evaluation services, surgery benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention medical care, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—span occupational health, benefits administration, and workforce procurement rather than orthopedic implant supply or surgical procedure delivery. None of the recent solicitations involve orthopedic implants, bone grafts, or surgical supplies aligned with the code's name.

The issuing bodies reflect a cross-sector procurement mix: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (public safety pension administration), the City of Long Beach (municipal employee benefits), the Washington State Department of Transportation (state agency occupational health), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (county detention health services), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (county benefits administration), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (county health system staffing). Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP for ferries employees across 14 locations (due October 9, 2026, pre-bid August 31, 2026), the City of Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out RFP for Centers of Excellence networks (due October 7, 2026, go-live targeted April 1, 2027), and Collier County's Pharmacy Benefit Management RFP (due April 9, 2026, estimated annual spend $8.7 million). Activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The code appears to function as a catch-all for health services procurement rather than as a designator for orthopedic implant or surgical supply opportunities, signaling potential data-tagging inconsistency at source rather than genuine market demand for pelvic bone replacement products or services.
