This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right lower femur with autologous 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 0QRB47Z

UNSPSC 85704218 (Replacement of right lower femur with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach), a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity under its nominal scope. The code represents a specific surgical procedure for orthopedic bone replacement, yet the six recent opportunities tagged to this code involve occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out networks for municipal employees, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which align with the code's stated orthopedic surgical procedure. This mismatch indicates either a systematic tagging error within the procurement system or that the code is being applied as a catch-all for health services procurement without specificity to procedure-level orthopedic work.

The actual work being solicited under this code designation spans health plan administration and occupational health services across state and local jurisdictions. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona) is requesting independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations ($750,000 over five years, RFP due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach (California) is seeking a surgical procedure carve-out benefit manager covering Centers of Excellence networks (RFP due October 7, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation is procuring occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP due October 9, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas) issued an RFI for specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth (due September 25, 2026); Collier County (Florida) solicited pharmacy benefit management covering approximately $8.7 million in annual pharmacy spending (RFP due April 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California) established a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (RFSQ due October 7, 2026). Issuing bodies include county health systems, state transportation agencies, county commissioners' offices, city retirement boards, and juvenile detention authorities. The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no dominant repeat buyer or regional concentration evident in the recent notice stream.
