UNSPSC 85703215: Replacement of left lower femur with autologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left lower femur with autologous tissue 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 0QRC07Z

UNSPSC 85703215 Replacement of left lower femur with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code describing a specific surgical procedure; however, the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code show little relevant procurement activity aligned with the code's nominal scope. The opportunities instead reflect health benefit administration, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve orthopedic surgery or tissue-substitute procedures. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error or that state and local procurement offices are using this code to tag broader health services that do not match the code's specific surgical definition. Based on the actual solicitations posted, the code does not currently represent a meaningful procurement line for orthopedic surgical services or medical device supply in the state and local market.

The geographic spread of tagged opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners). The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, county health systems, state transportation departments, and county probation agencies — indicating fragmented use of the code across multiple service lines and jurisdictions rather than coherent procurement under the code's intended scope. No representative opportunities for orthopedic surgical procedures, tissue substitutes, or related medical devices appear in the recent postings.
