UNSPSC 85703726: Replacement of left upper femur with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left upper femur with synthetic 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 0QR73JZ

UNSPSC 85703726 Replacement of left upper femur with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose title describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure; however, recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code do not procure prosthetic implants or surgical devices. Instead, the opportunities reveal that this code is being applied to a much broader set of health and benefits administration services—disability medical evaluations, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and temporary health professional staffing. State and local buyers under this code span city retirement systems (Phoenix), county boards of supervisors (Collier County, Santa Clara), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice authorities (Harris County), and municipal employees (City of Long Beach). The scope across recent opportunities centers on medical administration, record review, physician coordination, benefits design, and clinical staffing—none of which aligns with prosthetic implant procurement. This code-to-work mismatch suggests either miscoding at the issuing body or a taxonomy misalignment in the data source.

Recent activity is distributed across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent disability medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, with contract value of $750,000 over five years; the City of Long Beach RFP (HR26753) for surgical benefit carve-out programs with Centers of Excellence due October 7, 2026, targeting implementation April 1, 2027; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026 with pre-bid conference August 31, 2026; and Collier County's RFP (258414) for pharmacy benefit management services with historical annual pharmacy spending of approximately $8.7 million. Given the wide gap between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited, this code shows little actionable recent activity for firms in the prosthetic implant or surgical device business; the mismatch warrants verification before committing resources.
