UNSPSC 85704353: Insertion of hybrid external fixation device into left femoral shaft, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of hybrid external fixation device into left femoral shaft, 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 0QH94DZ

UNSPSC 85704353 Insertion of hybrid external fixation device into left femoral shaft, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code with no clear match to recent state and local contract opportunities. The source material contains six recent procurements — independent medical evaluation services (City of Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-out programs (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara) — but none solicits orthopedic implants, surgical devices, or femoral fixation hardware. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure and device insertion, yet the recent opportunities reflect health system administration, benefit management, staffing, and evaluation services rather than medical device procurement.

The mismatch suggests either that this code is rarely applied in state and local procurement for its intended medical device purpose, or that recent opportunities have been misclassified. Firms pursuing device sales under this code would find no active pipeline in the sampled recent activity. State and local health systems and purchasing cooperatives do acquire surgical hardware and implants, but those procurements typically surface under device-specific or orthopedic-focused UNSPSC families, not this Commodity code. Absence of relevant recent opportunities is a clear signal that this code does not drive current state and local procurement volume in its stated domain.
