UNSPSC 85704005: Revision of internal fixation device in left fibula, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of internal fixation device in left fibula, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0QWK44Z

UNSPSC 85704005, Revision of internal fixation device in left fibula, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The code describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the posted opportunities reflect broader medical and administrative services—independent medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, occupational surveillance, and temporary health professional staffing—that fall outside the scope of orthopedic device revision or placement.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the opportunities posted suggests either misclassification in the source material or inconsistent tagging by the issuing jurisdictions. State and local bodies posting these opportunities—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System—are procuring health services administration and staffing rather than orthopedic surgical implants or revision procedures. No recent state and local solicitations directly address the purchase, supply, or implantation of fibular fixation devices or related orthopedic hardware under this code. Without activity genuinely aligned to the code's defined scope, the category shows little actionable procurement signal for business development targeting orthopedic device supply or related services to state and local bodies.
