UNSPSC 85703956: Destruction of right lower femur, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of right 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 0Q5B3ZZ

UNSPSC 85703956 Destruction of right lower femur, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that nominally denotes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not reflect actual procurement of that service. Instead, the solicitations posted under this code span disability medical evaluations, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit administration, pharmacy management, emergency medical services coordination, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve destruction of a femur or surgical intervention. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated scope; the mismatch between the code's nominal content and the actual work being solicited suggests either a data-entry error in the state or local procurement system or a persistent miscoding across multiple issuing bodies.

The issuing bodies posting under this code include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluations), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit program administration), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (occupational medical surveillance), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. The most recent opportunities are the City of Phoenix RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, the City of Long Beach RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs due October 7, 2026, and the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance due October 9, 2026. Because the code's nominal definition does not align with any of the recent solicitations, firms should verify the accurate UNSPSC coding before pursuing work under this designation.
