UNSPSC 85703362: Insertion of monoplanar external fixation device into right femoral shaft, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of monoplanar external fixation device into right femoral shaft, 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 0QH80BZ

UNSPSC 85703362 Insertion of monoplanar external fixation device into right femoral shaft, open approach is a Commodity code with minimal alignment to recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure code, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code classify as occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, health professional staffing, surgical procedure networks, and youth detention medical services—none of which involve insertion of orthopedic fixation devices. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being purchased suggests either systematic miscoding within state and local procurement systems or that this Commodity code does not reflect genuine current buying activity in orthopedic surgical device placement.

The geographic spread of the few tagged opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), but this distribution reflects general miscoding rather than a concentrated market for the stated procedure. No representative recent opportunities directly solicit orthopedic fixation devices or related orthopedic surgical supplies. Unless state and local procurement offices systematically correct their UNSPSC tagging for medical procedure codes, this Commodity appears inactive for business development purposes.
