This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of internal fixation device 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 0QP744Z

UNSPSC 85704285 Removal of internal fixation device from left upper femur, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show minimal alignment with the nominal UNSPSC scope. The code appears misapplied across the opportunities in the source; the actual work being solicited spans occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent disability medical evaluations, surgery benefit carve-out programs, and emergency/specialty medical services for detained youth. These categories do not describe orthopedic surgical procedures or device removal. The mismatch suggests either systematic tagging error in the state and local procurement systems or category expansion that has drifted far from the original code definition. The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and specialized public bodies (Phoenix Retirement Office, Washington State Ferries). No single buyer appears twice in the recent set, indicating fragmented demand across jurisdictions.

Geographic activity centers on California (Long Beach, Santa Clara), Arizona (Phoenix), Florida (Collier County), Texas (Harris County), and Washington State, with no dominant regional concentration. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations, with proposals due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations, with proposals due October 16, 2026 and a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories, with proposals due October 7, 2026. The code's actual procurement relevance is limited — the nominal scope does not match the work state and local bodies are currently buying under this tag.
