UNSPSC 85702922: Revision of synthetic substitute in left lower femur, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in left lower femur, external 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 0QWCXJZ

UNSPSC 85702922 Revision of synthetic substitute in left lower femur, external approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes orthopedic surgical procedures, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not reflect procurement of that service. Instead, the opportunities span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs for public employees, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these solicitations involve orthopedic implant revision procedures or related surgical supplies. The issuing bodies are diverse and include county health systems, county human resources and procurement offices, state transportation departments, county probation departments, and city retirement boards. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope.

The geographic spread of posted opportunities includes Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) supporting disability determinations for public safety personnel; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive qualification solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The mismatch between code definition and actual procurement activity suggests misclassification at the source level.
