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 0QQ80ZZ

UNSPSC 85703238 Repair right femoral shaft, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—orthopedic surgical repair—does not align with the recent state and local solicitation activity tagged under it. The code appears in procurement records as a classification artifact rather than a driver of active buying.

The recent opportunities tagged to this code involve occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out networks, and specialty medical services for detained youth. None of these activities involve femoral shaft repair or any orthopedic surgical procedure. The Washington State Department of Transportation (via Washington State Ferries) posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026; the County of Santa Clara Health System posted a solicitation for temporary health professional staffing (Audiology, Cardiology, Diagnostic Imaging, Gastroenterology, and other ancillary categories, explicitly excluding nursing and physician staffing) due October 7, 2026; and the City of Long Beach posted an RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits (knee, hip, orthopedic, shoulder, spine, heart, weight loss, and oncology) due October 7, 2026. The issuing bodies span state departments, counties, cities, and regional health systems across Washington, Arizona, California, and Florida.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited indicates that this code should not be treated as a reliable signal for orthopedic surgical repair opportunities in state and local procurement.
