UNSPSC 85703414: Excision of right tibia, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of 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 0QBG0ZZ

UNSPSC 85703414 Excision of right tibia, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this classification. The recent opportunities tagged to this code are administrative and clinical healthcare services—medical evaluation, pharmacy benefit management, occupational surveillance, and temporary health professional staffing—rather than surgical procedures. No state or local government is posting solicitations for tibia excision or any related surgical intervention. The code appears misapplied to a suite of healthcare administration and staffing needs that fall outside its nominal surgical scope.

The opportunities in the block represent issuing bodies pursuing clinical and administrative healthcare services: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office seeking independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations; the City of Long Beach requesting a surgical carve-out benefit program for its health plan; the Washington State Department of Transportation soliciting occupational medical surveillance; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issuing an RFI for specialty medical services for detained youth; Collier County seeking pharmacy benefit management; and the County of Santa Clara Health System establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing. No issued contract under the code, response deadline pattern, or geographic concentration emerges from these solicitations because they do not correspond to the code's surgical nomenclature. State and local procurement professionals should treat this code as inactive for operational purchasing and verify the appropriate UNSPSC classification when evaluating healthcare service and staffing opportunities.
