UNSPSC 85703406 Extirpation of matter from right lower femur, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope does not align with the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The code itself designates a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged to this code cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out program management, specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which are orthopedic surgical procedures or involve matter extraction. The mismatch between the code's surgical nomenclature and the administrative and occupational health services being bought suggests a taxonomy alignment issue in the underlying procurement systems rather than a live category for surgical procedure procurement.

The source contains no evidence of state and local government procurement for orthopedic surgical services, operative matter extraction, or related surgical supplies or facility services under this code. The opportunities posted under it represent a fragmented set of health services administration and staffing categories across different issuing bodies — the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System — spanning Arizona, California, Washington, and Texas. Without recent opportunities that actually solicit orthopedic surgical procedures, surgical instrumentation, operative supplies, or related services aligned to the code's nominal scope, this code does not represent an active procurement category for business development purposes at this time.
