UNSPSC 85704324: Insertion of internal fixation device into right fibula, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of internal fixation device into right fibula, 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 0QHJ44Z

UNSPSC 85704324 Insertion of internal fixation device into right fibula, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities tagged to this code — independent medical evaluation services for pension boards, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, juvenile detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — represent medical administration, health plan services, and temporary clinical staffing rather than orthopedic surgical procedures or implantable medical devices. The code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited diverge substantially, indicating either a systematic tagging error or that state and local purchasing offices do not source orthopedic implants and surgical procedures through this particular UNSPSC hierarchy.

The mismatch between the code's specificity — a surgical procedure code naming a single anatomical fixation — and the breadth of administrative and staffing services appearing in the recent-opportunities block suggests this code does not reflect actual state and local procurement activity. No RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB for orthopedic implants, surgical device procurement, or hospital surgical services appears in the source material. Firms pursuing state and local work in orthopedic implant sales or surgical procedure support should verify the correct UNSPSC classification through their target jurisdictions' procurement offices rather than relying on this code.
