UNSPSC 85703724: Replacement of right femoral shaft with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right femoral shaft with autologous 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 0QR837Z

UNSPSC 85703724 Replacement of right femoral shaft with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that, in recent state and local procurement activity, has little relevance to the nominal orthopedic surgical procedure it names. State and local opportunities tagged under this code cover occupational and disability medical surveillance, medical record summarization for pension determinations, Center of Excellence networks for surgical procedures, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency care for youth in custody — none of which involve implantation procedures or specific orthopedic interventions. The issuing bodies span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and municipalities (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), reflecting a mix of human resources benefits administration, occupational health compliance, and detention health services rather than direct orthopedic implant procurement.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in the West and South, with recent solicitations from Washington State, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations, due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, due October 16, 2026 ($750,000 maximum over five years); and Santa Clara County Health System's RFQ for a vendor pool of temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026. The code appears to be a taxonomic mismatch for the work actually being bought — state and local procurement offices are using this implant-specific commodity code to tag employment health services, benefits administration, and medical surveillance rather than orthopedic device procurement.
