UNSPSC 85703557: Supplement left tibia with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left tibia with nonautologous 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 0QUH3KZ

UNSPSC 85703557 Supplement left tibia with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code with a nominal scope centered on orthopedic surgical procedures involving tibia implants. Recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code, however, show no direct procurement of tibia implants or related surgical supplies. Instead, the opportunities address occupational and disability medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgical networks, independent medical evaluations, and temporary health professional staffing — activities that diverge substantially from the code's stated scope. The issuing bodies are diverse and include city retirement offices (Phoenix), county health systems (Santa Clara, Collier County), state transportation departments (Washington), and county juvenile justice agencies (Harris County), reflecting a mix of municipal human resources, county benefits administration, and health system procurement functions. No coherent product or service line unites the recent opportunities under this code's nominal definition.

Geographic activity spans Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach, Collier County), Washington State, and Texas (Harris County), though the opportunities show no concentration pattern and little evidence that the code is being used for its stated commodity purpose. The representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing services across multiple ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code appears to carry a tagging mismatch with the actual work state and local agencies are buying; pursuit under this code is unlikely to yield relevant opportunities aligned with tibia implant procurement or related orthopedic surgical supplies.
