UNSPSC 85703446: Division of right lower femur, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to division of right lower 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 0Q8B0ZZ

UNSPSC 85703446, Division of right lower femur, open approach, is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure, but the six recent opportunities posted under this code between July and September 2026 are unrelated to orthopedic surgery — they span independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these opportunities involve lower-femur fracture repair or open surgical approaches to femoral procedures. The mismatch between the code's clinical name and the actual work being bought across multiple issuing bodies suggests either systematic miscoding in state and local procurement systems or a code classification that does not align with current government purchasing patterns.

The six opportunities originate from diverse jurisdictions — the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California) — spanning four states. Because none of these solicitations actually involve orthopedic surgery or femoral procedures, this code does not represent a viable procurement segment for firms supplying surgical implants, instrumentation, or related orthopedic products or services. Prospective vendors should verify code assignment directly with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities tagged under this number.
