UNSPSC 85701332: Reposition left acetabulum with internal fixation device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left acetabulum with internal fixation device, percutaneous 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 0QS534Z

UNSPSC 85701332 Reposition left acetabulum with internal fixation device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work being solicited under it in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged to this code involve occupational and disability medical surveillance services, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgical networks for government employee benefit plans, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which concern orthopedic surgical procedures or the clinical treatment pathway the code nominally describes. The mismatch between the code's scope and the work actually being bought suggests either a tagging error in the procurement system or a fundamental misalignment between this UNSPSC category and how state and local agencies classify health services procurement.

The issuing bodies in the recent opportunities block include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health systems and employee benefits programs (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county government procurement (Collier County), county juvenile probation (Harris County), and regional transit authorities. The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals (due October 9, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's establishment of a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026). Given the divergence between the code name and the actual solicitations, this code appears to carry limited signal value for firms pursuing state and local medical device or surgical-services contracts.
