UNSPSC 85704282: Removal of synthetic substitute from left upper femur, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from left upper femur, 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 0QP74JZ

UNSPSC 85704282, "Removal of synthetic substitute from left upper femur, percutaneous endoscopic approach," is a Commodity code that appears in state and local procurement systems but does not align with the medical and health services actually being solicited under it in recent opportunities. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent postings tagged to this code encompass occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-outs, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve femoral implant removal. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the issuing jurisdictions' procurement systems or that the code is being applied as a catch-all for diverse health services procurement that lacks a more precise commodity designation.

The recent opportunities originate from state departments and large county health systems: Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers across 14 locations), Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical record summary and independent medical evaluations for police and fire pension boards), City of Long Beach (surgical benefit carve-out program for municipal employees and retirees), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 7,200 members), and Santa Clara County Health System (temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories). Geographic activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. No single issuing body appears more than once in the recent set. Given the code's orthopedic surgical focus versus the actual scope of work posted, this code shows little relevant recent activity for state and local procurement professionals pursuing orthopedic surgical contracting.
