This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right upper 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 0QR64KZ

UNSPSC 85704228 Replacement of right upper femur with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal surgical-procedure scope. The six recent opportunities posted under this code span disability medical record summarization, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, health professional temporary staffing, specialty surgical carve-outs for employee benefits, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve orthopedic joint replacement procedures or implantable medical devices. The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the actual work being solicited suggests a tagging error rather than a category tracking genuine state and local purchasing in this commodity area.

The opportunities instead reflect state and local government's core health-administration and workforce-management needs: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (RFP for disability evaluation coordination, due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach (RFP for surgical and orthopedic specialty carve-out benefits management, due October 7, 2026); Washington State Department of Transportation (RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry terminals, due October 9, 2026); Collier County (RFP for pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members, with historical spend around $8.7 million annually); and Santa Clara County Health System (qualification pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing across 13 categories, due October 7, 2026). Recent activity concentrates in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with state departments and county health systems as the primary issuing bodies. No procurement activity in this code appears to address implantable medical devices, surgical consumables, or orthopedic joint replacement inventory—the practical focus areas for vendors in the orthopedic implant or surgical-supply space.
