This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left lower femur 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 0QSC3CZ

UNSPSC 85703631 Reposition left lower femur with ring external fixation device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its procedural surgical nomenclature and the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. The recent solicitations posted under this code do not reflect orthopedic surgical procedures or medical devices; instead, they represent occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, disability medical evaluations, surgical care networks, and temporary clinical staffing. The code's nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical intervention—does not match the healthcare administration, benefits management, and occupational medicine services actually being solicited by state and local buyers under this classification.

The issuing bodies posting opportunities tagged to this code span state departments, counties, and health systems: the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical evaluations for public safety pensions), the City of Long Beach (surgical care center-of-excellence carve-out for employee benefits), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty care for detained youth), Collier County (pharmacy benefit management), and Santa Clara County Health System (temporary health professional staffing). Geographic activity appears concentrated in California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County, Collier County), Arizona (Phoenix), Washington (statewide), and Texas (Harris County). Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026, covering baseline and periodic examinations across 14 Washington ferry locations; the City of Phoenix independent medical evaluation RFP (RTMRFP26001) due October 16, 2026, for disability benefit applications at up to $750,000 over five years; and the Santa Clara County Health System non-exclusive multiple-award temporary staffing vehicle due October 7, 2026, for qualified vendor pools across 13 ancillary clinical categories. This code does not reliably reflect the procedural surgical work its name describes and shows no evidence that state and local procurement offices are actually sourcing orthopedic fixation devices or surgical procedures under it.
