UNSPSC 85703866: Insertion of 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 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 0QH834Z

UNSPSC 85703866 (Insertion of internal fixation device into right femoral shaft, percutaneous approach) is a Commodity code with little relevant recent activity. The recent state and local solicitations tagged to this code do not align with the orthopedic surgical procedure the code describes. Instead, the opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for state transportation workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve femoral fixation devices or orthopedic implants. The mismatch suggests that state and local procurement systems are applying this code incorrectly to administrative and clinical services rather than to orthopedic devices or surgical implants themselves.

Without solicitations that actually seek femoral fixation devices or related orthopedic hardware under this code, no representative procurement activity, geographic concentration, or issuing-body pattern can be characterized. A business development professional should treat this code as inactive for device sales purposes and investigate whether state and local healthcare purchasing for orthopedic implants is coded differently in individual jurisdictions' systems or consolidated through group purchasing organizations not reflected in these recent notice records.
