UNSPSC 85703864: Insertion of intramedullary internal fixation device into right femoral shaft, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of intramedullary internal fixation device into right femoral shaft, 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 0QH836Z

UNSPSC 85703864, Insertion of intramedullary internal fixation device into right femoral shaft, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure involving orthopedic implantation—does not align with the recent opportunities tagged under it. The six most recent state and local solicitations instead cover independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, health plan surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, juvenile detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these opportunities involve the procurement or implantation of intramedullary fixation devices or related orthopedic surgical supplies. The mismatch suggests either incorrect code tagging by issuing bodies or a fundamental divergence between the code's intended scope and actual procurement practice at the state and local level.

The issuing bodies posting under this code span diverse public-sector categories—municipal pension boards (City of Phoenix), city employee benefit programs (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile corrections (Harris County), county health systems (Collier County, Santa Clara County)—with no clear pattern of repeat buyers or concentrated activity in any single jurisdiction type. Geographic activity includes Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas across the six posted opportunities. Given that none of these opportunities address medical device procurement, orthopedic surgery services, or implant inventory, business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for practical state and local purposes and verify code assignments before investing time in pursuit.
