This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of autologous tissue substitute in left femoral shaft, 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 0QW9X7Z

UNSPSC 85702933 Revision of autologous tissue substitute in left femoral shaft, external approach, Commodity, shows a significant mismatch between its nominal clinical scope and the state and local procurement activity recently tagged under it. The code is named for a specific orthopedic surgical procedure involving tissue revision, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code cover independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. None of these activities involve autologous tissue revision or orthopedic surgical revision at the femoral shaft. The code exhibits little relevant recent procurement activity aligned with its stated commodity definition.

The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 span four state jurisdictions—Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara Health System), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), plus Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners)—with no concentration in any single state. Issuing bodies include municipal retirement offices, city human resources departments, state transportation and ferries agencies, county health systems, county commissioners, and county juvenile justice departments. The most concrete example is the Washington State Ferries RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026, which calls for baseline and periodic medical examinations across 14 ferry locations with contract award anticipated by November 30, 2026. The code's current tagging does not reflect orthopedic surgical procedures or revision services and warrants review for classification accuracy.
