UNSPSC 85703371: Insertion of intramedullary internal fixation device into left upper femur, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of intramedullary internal fixation device into left upper femur, 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 0QH706Z

UNSPSC 85703371 (Insertion of intramedullary internal fixation device into left upper femur, open approach) is a Commodity code that shows little recent relevance to state and local government procurement. The recent opportunities tagged under this code do not align with orthopedic surgical implants or procedures; instead, they span occupational health surveillance, pension disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, health professional staffing, and surgical care network carve-outs. The code's nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical device and implantation procedure—does not match the actual work being solicited by state and local buyers in the available record.

The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the source data or that state and local governments do not systematically procure individual orthopedic implants through UNSPSC-coded solicitations. Health systems and counties in the current record (Washington State Department of Transportation, Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and Santa Clara County Health System) are instead issuing RFPs and RFQs for health services delivery, benefits administration, and staffing rather than for medical devices or surgical supplies. No recent opportunities in the source demonstrate procurement of intramedullary fixation devices or related orthopedic hardware by any state or local jurisdiction.
