UNSPSC 85704063: Supplement left lower femur with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left lower femur with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0QUC4KZ

UNSPSC 85704063 Supplement left lower femur with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) does not align with state and local government procurement activity in the available record. The code describes a specific surgical procedure involving orthopedic implant placement, yet the six recent opportunities posted under this code cover independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve orthopedic implants or the procedure named in the code. The mismatch suggests a UNSPSC tagging error in the underlying opportunities database rather than active procurement demand for the implant procedure itself.

No recent state and local solicitations show procurement of the orthopedic implant product or service that this Commodity code describes. The issuing bodies in the recent-opportunities block (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 pursuing healthcare administrative, occupational health, and staffing services but not implantable medical devices. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for state and local contracting purposes and rely on medical device supply chain codes for orthopedic implant opportunities in the government market.
