UNSPSC 85703404: Extirpation of matter from right tibia, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right tibia, 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 0QCG0ZZ

UNSPSC 85703404 Extirpation of matter from right tibia, open approach is a Commodity code that does not match the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. The recent opportunities assigned to this code are not surgical procedures but rather comprehensive healthcare service contracts—inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction. None of these solicitations involve orthopedic surgery, bone removal, or operative intervention on the tibia. The code appears to be a clinical procedure classification from a medical taxonomy that has been incorrectly applied to state and local procurement records; state and local buyers do not procure individual surgical procedures as discrete line-item contracts under UNSPSC, and the opportunities shown here represent administrative and managed-care service agreements rather than clinical services.

The issuing bodies across the tagged opportunities span county governments (Muscogee County, Collier County, Monroe County, and Santa Monica Fire Department in California) and a county health services department (San Mateo County Health), with contract values ranging from $580,000 over three years to historical spend of approximately $8.7 million annually for pharmacy benefit management alone. Geographic spread includes Georgia, Florida, and California. Because the UNSPSC code designation itself appears to be a data error rather than a genuine procurement category for state and local buyers, the opportunities listed—while substantive healthcare contracts—should not be treated as representative of legitimate activity under this code. Business development professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC classification for healthcare services procurement before pursuing opportunities tagged here.
