UNSPSC 85701344: Replacement of right acetabulum with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right acetabulum with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0QR43KZ

UNSPSC 85701344, Replacement of right acetabulum with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The source shows no solicitations for orthopedic surgical procedures, implants, or related medical devices; instead, the opportunities describe occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical center-of-excellence networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. These activities fall outside the scope of a specific surgical procedure code and represent a category misclassification in the state and local procurement systems posting them.

No relevant recent opportunities exist under this code. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope—a defined surgical procedure with a nonautologous tissue replacement—and the actual work being solicited suggests that procurement offices issuing these opportunities did not apply the correct UNSPSC taxonomy. State and local buyers pursuing orthopedic implants, surgical supplies, or procedure-specific equipment should verify coding against the actual solicitation language rather than rely on the posted UNSPSC assignment.
