UNSPSC 85701228: Insertion of internal fixation device into left acetabulum, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of internal fixation device into left acetabulum, 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 0QH504Z

UNSPSC 85701228 Insertion of internal fixation device into left acetabulum, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are procuring. The recent opportunities tagged under this code cover inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employee health plans, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve orthopedic surgical procedures or implantable devices. The code's nominal scope (surgical insertion of an acetabular fixation device) does not align with any of the five recent solicitations in the source block, which span correctional health administration, employee health plan pharmacy management, virtual telemedicine, mental health peer support, and EMS medical oversight.

The issuing bodies are geographically dispersed across Florida, Georgia, and California and include county boards of commissioners (Collier County, Monroe County), a city consolidated government (Columbus Consolidated Government in Georgia), a county behavioral health department (San Mateo County), and a city fire department (Santa Monica). The recent opportunities show no pattern of repeat buyers or concentration among particular jurisdiction types. The source documents confirm a significant mismatch between the UNSPSC code designation and the work being solicited, indicating either a data-entry error in the underlying procurement system or a systematic misclassification. No state or local procurement activity under this code's actual scope — orthopedic device insertion or related surgical services — appears in the source. Any firm evaluating this code for business development should treat it as inactive for state and local procurement purposes and verify the correct UNSPSC classification through direct outreach to the relevant procurement offices if pursuing work in correctional health services, county employee pharmacy management, or related categories.
