UNSPSC 85703803: Release left tibia, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release left tibia, 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 0QNH3ZZ

UNSPSC 85703803 Release left tibia, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluations for disability benefit determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for government employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve orthopedic or lower-extremity surgical procedures. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, municipal health plans, state transportation departments, county juvenile probation systems, and regional health systems, reflecting fragmented procurement across diverse public sector health administration and employee benefit functions.

The geographic spread across recent opportunities includes Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Florida (Collier County), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County). The most directly relevant recent opportunity is the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP 26001 for independent medical evaluation services, due October 16, 2026, with total maximum compensation of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825) with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026 and proposals due October 9, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification vehicle (RFSQHHSFY270052) for temporary health professional staffing across thirteen ancillary clinical categories, with proposals due October 7, 2026. The code does not support a clear procurement signal for orthopedic surgical services and warrants re-verification against the actual scope of work before committing pursuit resources.
