UNSPSC 85703070: Supplement left femoral shaft with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left femoral shaft with synthetic substitute, 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 0QU90JZ

UNSPSC 85703070 Supplement left femoral shaft with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical implant procedure, but the six recent opportunities posted by state and local jurisdictions target medical services, health benefit administration, occupational health programs, pharmacy management, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve orthopedic implant procurement or the surgical procedures this code denotes.

The mismatch suggests that either the code has been misapplied by issuing bodies or that the code sees little relevant activity in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities span the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical evaluations), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit carve-out administration), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (youth detention medical services), Collier County (pharmacy benefit management), and Santa Clara County Health System (temporary clinical staffing). None of these solicitations concern orthopedic implants, surgical implantation, or the product categories typically associated with this code. Business development professionals should verify that this code is the appropriate vehicle for their service or product lines before pursuing opportunities tagged under it.
