UNSPSC 85703150: Reposition right lower femur with intramedullary internal fixation device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition right lower femur with intramedullary internal fixation device, 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 0QSB06Z

UNSPSC 85703150 Reposition right lower femur with intramedullary internal fixation device, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope describes a surgical procedure for orthopedic trauma repair; however, recent state and local solicitations tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty surgical carve-out programs, independent medical evaluations, and youth detention healthcare services—none of which directly involve femur repositioning or intramedullary fixation. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the tagging of these opportunities or a fundamental disconnect between the code's clinical nomenclature and its use in state and local procurement systems.

Recent opportunities posted under this code do not represent coherent procurement demand for the specific orthopedic surgical service the code describes. The Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), the City of Long Beach surgical benefit carve-out RFP (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) address health plan administration, occupational health management, and clinical staffing—all fundamentally different from orthopedic surgical implant procedure codes. The City of Phoenix disability medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) and Harris County Juvenile Probation's emergency medical services RFI (071626BNM, due September 25, 2026) similarly fall outside orthopedic device procurement. Geographic representation spans Washington, California, Arizona, Florida, and Texas, but the diversity reflects general health services procurement rather than concentration in orthopedic implant or surgical procedure coding. No recent state and local opportunities demonstrate purchasing of femur fixation devices or related orthopedic trauma services under this code.
