UNSPSC 85703607: Reposition left fibula with internal fixation device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left fibula with internal fixation device, 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 0QSK34Z

UNSPSC 85703607 Reposition left fibula with internal fixation device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local solicitations tagged under it bear no relation to surgical intervention — they span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary care, peer support for mental health workers, and fire department medical direction. The code shows a systematic mismatch between its nominal scope and the work actually being bought. State and local issuers across multiple jurisdictions are using this code as a catch-all for healthcare delivery, clinical management, and administrative medical services that fall outside its orthopedic surgical intent. The issuing bodies include county corrections facilities, county human resources and benefits divisions, county boards of commissioners managing employee health plans, county behavioral health agencies, and municipal fire departments. None of these opportunities involve orthopedic surgery, internal fixation devices, or procedural reposition of bone.

The recent activity spans Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), Georgia (Columbus Consolidated Government for Muscogee County Prison), California (San Mateo County), and California (Santa Monica Fire Department), with contracts ranging from $580,000 for a three-year mental health peer support pilot to approximately $8.7 million in annual pharmacy spending under Collier County's pharmacy benefit management procurement. Representative opportunities include Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services (due April 9, 2026), Monroe County's RFP for Virtual Primary and Urgent Care Services (due April 16, 2026), and Santa Monica Fire Department's RFP for a Fire Department Medical Director (due October 16, 2025). Because the code's orthopedic surgical definition does not correspond to what state and local governments are actually buying under it, this code does not offer a reliable path to relevant procurement in the surgical device, orthopedic services, or hospital procedure markets.
