UNSPSC 85703915: Excision of left lower femur, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left lower 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 0QBC3ZZ

UNSPSC 85703915 Excision of left lower femur, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code nominally describing a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity shows no solicitations aligned with the code's scope. The available opportunities tagged under this code do not match the procedure itself; instead, they span occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit evaluations, surgical benefit management, pharmacy benefit administration, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention medical services — none of which involve excision of the lower femur. State and local governments do not appear to be purchasing this specific procedure through competitive procurement under the current code designation, and the mismatch between the code's clinical scope and the opportunities posted suggests either a classification error in the underlying opportunity records or minimal procurement activity under this code.

The source identifies no recent solicitations for the orthopedic procedure named in the code. The opportunities present across Arizona, Washington, California, and Florida demonstrate that state and local health authorities purchase diverse medical and staffing services through RFP and RFI vehicles, but none target the surgical intervention this Commodity code describes. Unless the code has been applied erroneously to opportunities in health benefits or occupational health administration, business development professionals evaluating this code should verify whether state or local agencies actually solicit lower-femur excision services through competitive procurement channels or whether this code tier represents internal clinical taxonomies rather than active procurement categories.
