UNSPSC 85703876: Insertion of monoplanar external fixation device into right upper femur, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of monoplanar external fixation device into right upper femur, 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 0QH63BZ

UNSPSC 85703876, Insertion of monoplanar external fixation device into right upper femur, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that shows no alignment with actual state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities record. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent solicitations posted under this code span independent medical evaluation services for pension-board disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out networks, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve insertion of external fixation devices or orthopedic surgery supply procurement. The mismatch suggests the code has been misapplied to these opportunities or serves as a catch-all placeholder rather than a precise classification for related purchases.

Recent activity under this code appears across three states: Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026); California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara Health System, RFPs for surgical carve-out benefits and temporary health professional staffing, due October 7, 2026); and Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries, RFP for occupational medical surveillance, due October 9, 2026), alongside Harris County in Texas and Collier County in Florida. Issuing bodies span city procurement offices, county health systems, state transportation agencies, and county probation departments. Given the breadth and inconsistency of the opportunities tagged to this code, pursue this code only if your firm operates in health-services administration, medical staffing, or benefits consulting; the code's nominal orthopedic-device scope does not reflect current state and local demand signals.
