UNSPSC 85704259: Removal of external fixation device from right tibia, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of external fixation device from right tibia, 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 0QPG45Z

UNSPSC 85704259 Removal of external fixation device from right tibia, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure and does not align with the opportunities posted under it in recent state and local solicitations.

The recent opportunities tagged to this code—inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county prison, pharmacy benefit management services for a county health plan, virtual primary and urgent care services for a county workforce, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical director services—involve healthcare administration, management, and clinical oversight rather than the orthopedic surgical removal procedure the code nominally describes. No recent state and local RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB solicitations explicitly procure external fixation device removal services or related orthopedic surgical procedures. The mismatch between the code's scope and the opportunities posted beneath it suggests either a classification error in the state and local procurement systems tagging these opportunities or that the code is not actively used for state and local direct procurement of this specific service line at present.
