UNSPSC 85703000: Long bones leg, open approach-part A

This class includes one or more of 17 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the long bones of the leg with open approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0Q.

UNSPSC 85703000 Long bones leg, open approach-part A is a Class code whose nominal scope does not align with the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. The recent opportunities shown reflect healthcare administration and clinical services procurement — inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve orthopedic surgical procedures or implants for long bone repair. The code shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement and appears to be a classification mismatch in the source data.

The handful of tagged opportunities span different regions and issuing bodies: Muscogee County (Georgia) is procuring comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services via RFP 26-0008, due May 15, 2026; Collier County (Florida) issued RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services with historical annual pharmacy spending of approximately $8.7 million; Monroe County (Florida) solicited virtual primary and urgent care services via RFP, with proposals due April 16, 2026; San Mateo County (California) pursued a peer support pilot for behavioral health workers; and Santa Monica Fire Department (California) sought a medical director. None of these solicitations involve the orthopedic products or surgical services the code nominally describes, and pursuit under this code would require verification that the classification reflects actual procurement intent rather than administrative error.
