UNSPSC 85703553: Supplement left fibula with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left fibula with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous 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 0QUK37Z

UNSPSC 85703553 Supplement left fibula with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevance to actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local solicitations tagged under it—disability medical evaluations, surgical benefits administration, occupational health surveillance, youth detention medical services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—bear no operational relationship to fibula replacement or tissue-transplant surgery. State and local governments are not soliciting this specific procedure as a purchasable line item; instead, they are contracting for healthcare administration, medical services coordination, and temporary staffing across multiple clinical domains. The mismatch between code definition and actual buying signals either a cataloging error in the sourcing system or an artifact of how some jurisdictions have tagged administrative healthcare contracts in their procurement databases.

No recent state and local opportunities directly solicit orthopedic implant procurement, surgical procedure delivery, or tissue-substitute supply under this code. The issuing bodies in the recent record—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System—are procuring healthcare management and staffing services rather than surgical supplies or procedures. This code does not appear to be an active vehicle for state and local procurement of orthopedic devices or surgical interventions. Business development professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before pursuing opportunities listed under this code.
