UNSPSC 85703639: Reposition right lower femur with monoplanar external fixation device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition right lower femur with monoplanar 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 0QSB3BZ

UNSPSC 85703639, Reposition right lower femur with monoplanar external fixation device, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that bears no clear connection to the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The code describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the six opportunities posted under this code since mid-August 2026 solicit medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit carve-outs, health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare — none of which involve femur repositioning or external fixation devices. The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the underlying procurement systems or a misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how these jurisdictions are classifying their health care service buys.

The issuing bodies span county and city governments as well as regional health systems. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona) posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability determinations for public-safety pension systems (due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach (California) solicited surgical benefit carve-out management for its employee health plan (due October 7, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation sought occupational medical surveillance for ferry system workers across 14 locations statewide (due October 9, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas) issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (due September 25, 2026); Collier County (Florida) requested pharmacy benefit management services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with a historical spending baseline of approximately $8.7 million annually (due April 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California) established a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing across 13 service categories excluding nursing and physicians (due October 7, 2026). The code shows no relevant recent activity aligned with its stated orthopedic surgical scope.
