UNSPSC 85703037: Revision of synthetic substitute in right femoral shaft, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in right femoral shaft, open 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 0QW80JZ

UNSPSC 85703037 Revision of synthetic substitute in right femoral shaft, open approach is a Commodity code that shows a mismatch between its orthopedic surgical nomenclature and the state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not solicit revision of synthetic femoral shaft prostheses or any orthopedic implant-related work; instead, they encompass independent medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and specialty medical care for detained youth. The code appears to have been applied inconsistently or incorrectly to general healthcare administration and staffing solicitations rather than to the specific orthopedic surgical procedure its name describes. State and local issuing bodies represented in the tagged opportunities include county boards and commissions (Collier County, Harris County), city retirement offices (Phoenix), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), and county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System).

The geographic footprint spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no concentration in any single state. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services posted September 16, 2026 with proposals due October 16, 2026, seeking disability record summary and examination scheduling for approximately 75 annual applications with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services posted August 25, 2026 with proposals due October 9, 2026, requiring physician-supervised medical examinations across 14 ferry system locations; and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services posted August 20, 2026 with proposals originally due April 9, 2026, covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with approximately $8.7 million in annual historical pharmacy spend. The code shows limited relevance to the orthopedic implant procedure it nominally describes; business development professionals pursuing work in orthopedic implant supply or revision surgery should verify the correct UNSPSC classification rather than rely on this code's recent activity.
