UNSPSC 85701522: Supplement right acetabulum with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right acetabulum with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0QU44KZ

UNSPSC 85701522 Supplement right acetabulum with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually buying under this code designation. The recent solicitations tagged with this code do not involve acetabular surgical procedures or orthopedic implants; instead, they encompass occupational and disability medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension benefit determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical carve-out networks for employee benefits, and emergency medical services for youth detention facilities. The code's ostensible scope — a specific orthopedic surgical procedure — bears no relation to the administrative and occupational health services state and local bodies are currently procuring under this code number.

The source shows no recent opportunities that align with the code's stated definition of acetabular supplementation surgery. The mismatch suggests either a data entry error in the code assignment or that this code is being used by issuing bodies as a catch-all for non-orthopedic medical service procurement. The issuing bodies in the recent block span diverse jurisdictions — the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and the County of Santa Clara — representing counties, cities, state agencies, and special-purpose health systems across Arizona, California, Washington, and Florida. Without any recent opportunities actually involving orthopedic surgical procedures or tissue substitutes, this code presents no credible procurement pathway for vendors in the surgical implant or orthopedic procedure supply chain.
