This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of autologous tissue substitute from right 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 0QP647Z

UNSPSC 85704288 Removal of autologous tissue substitute from right upper femur, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The source contains six recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code, but none involve orthopedic tissue removal procedures or surgical care aligned with the code's nominal scope. The opportunities instead cover occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Ferries), disability medical evaluations (City of Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-out networks (City of Long Beach), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County Health System). These solicitations reflect health plan administration, occupational health compliance, detention healthcare, and workforce augmentation rather than specific surgical procedures on skeletal tissue.

The mismatch between the code's technical medical description and the actual work being solicited suggests either tagging error or a fundamental disconnect between UNSPSC classification practice and the work state and local health systems and pension boards are actually purchasing. No opportunity in the source describes procurement of orthopedic surgical services, tissue substitute removal, or endoscopic femoral procedures. Vendors tracking this code for business development should treat it as inactive for state and local contracting purposes and instead monitor the broader health services codes under which these issuing bodies—state health agencies, county retirement offices, county health systems, and municipalities—are actively releasing opportunities.
