This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left upper femur with 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 0QS704Z

UNSPSC 85703173 Reposition left upper femur with internal fixation device, open approach is a Commodity code that carries a surgical-procedure classification in the taxonomy, but the recent state and local procurement activity posted under this code does not reflect orthopedic or surgical services. Instead, the code tags comprehensive health care administration, facility-based medical services, pharmacy benefit management, and emergency services contracting. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either systematic miscoding in state and local procurement systems or that this code has become a catch-all for health services that lack more precise classification. The issuing bodies are county governments and special-purpose districts—specifically county boards of commissioners managing employee health benefits, county detention facilities, and county emergency services. None of the recent opportunities describe orthopedic surgery, surgical implants, or inpatient surgical repair.

Recent activity spans Florida and Georgia, with the most visible opportunities in Collier County (pharmacy benefit management for 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered family members, RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026) and Muscogee County, Georgia (inmate medical and pharmacy services for a 576-person correctional facility, RFP 26-0008, due May 15, 2026). Monroe County, Florida posted a virtual primary and urgent care RFP (due April 16, 2026) covering 2,300 county members with 24/7 access and bilingual support requirements. San Mateo County, California issued an RFP for peer support services for peer workers under Mental Health Services Act funding ($580,000 total, due July 2, 2025). Santa Monica Fire Department solicited a medical director contract (RFP 455, due October 16, 2025) with board certification in Emergency Medicine. The code shows no coherent procurement signal aligned with its nominal classification and should be treated as either systematically miscoded or deprecated for actual state and local procurement purposes.
