UNSPSC 85703610: Reposition right fibula with ring external fixation device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition right fibula with ring external 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 0QSJ3CZ

UNSPSC 85703610 "Reposition right fibula with ring external fixation device, percutaneous approach" is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its surgical procedure scope. The code is tagged to six recent state and local opportunities, but none involve orthopedic surgery, fibular repositioning, or external fixation devices. Instead, the tagged solicitations cover independent disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which address the specific surgical intervention the code nominally describes. This mismatch suggests either miscoding by the issuing bodies or that the code is not in active use for procurements aligned with its intended commodity definition.

The recent opportunities that carry this code span Arizona (Phoenix Retirement Office), California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), Florida (Collier County), Texas (Harris County), and Washington State (Department of Transportation), and involve health system administration, employee benefits contracting, occupational health programs, and clinical staffing — all distinct from surgical device procurement or procedural services. No opportunities in the source material reflect purchasing of external fixation devices, surgical implants, orthopedic procedure scheduling, or related clinical supplies. Given the complete absence of on-target recent solicitations and the consistent mislabeling across multiple jurisdictions, state and local procurement professionals pursuing medical device, orthopedic implant, or surgical equipment contracts should verify actual code assignment directly with issuing bodies rather than rely on this code's current tagging patterns.
