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 0QN93ZZ

UNSPSC 85703807 Release left femoral shaft, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local contract opportunities. The code nominally describes a specific surgical orthopedic procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code involve independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which concern femoral shaft release procedures. The mismatch suggests the code has been applied inconsistently or inappropriately to procurement activities that fall outside its intended scope of clinical procedure delivery.

The issuing bodies tagged under this code include city retirement boards (City of Phoenix), county health systems (Santa Clara, Harris County, Collier County), municipal employee benefits programs (City of Long Beach), and state transportation authorities (Washington State Department of Transportation). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Recent representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance at ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (258414, due April 9, 2026). The code shows limited relevance to the actual procurement activity being tagged — business development professionals pursuing work under this code should verify the specific procurement scope directly with issuing bodies rather than relying on the nominal code descriptor.
