This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of internal fixation device from left pelvic bone, 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 0QP344Z

UNSPSC 85701617 Removal of internal fixation device from left pelvic bone, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity under its literal code scope. The source identifies six recent state and local opportunities tagged with this code, but none involve orthopedic surgical procedures, device removal, or percutaneous endoscopic work. Instead, the tagged opportunities span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency youth detention healthcare services. The divergence between the code's nominal surgical-procedure scope and the actual work being solicited indicates the code is being misapplied or the source data contains classification errors; this code does not reflect active state and local procurement for the medical service it is named to describe.

No state and local procurement opportunities for removal of internal fixation devices or related orthopedic surgical services appear in the recent records. The tagged opportunities originate from Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), but their scopes bear no relationship to the code's orthopedic surgical intent. Business development teams tracking this code should flag it as inactive for the service it nominally covers and not pursue opportunities posted under this classification without independent verification of actual work scope.
