This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of ring external fixation device into left upper femur, percutaneous endoscopic approach.

UNSPSC 85704368, Insertion of ring external fixation device into left upper femur, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical implant procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code instead reflect health benefit administration, occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve orthopedic fixation devices or surgical implantation. State and local buyers tagging opportunities to this code are using it to classify healthcare services and administrative support rather than medical devices or surgical procedures, indicating either a classification misalignment in the source data or a substantial divergence between the code's procedural name and the work actually being purchased.

The recent opportunities span multiple jurisdictions and issuing bodies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical evaluations), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit carve-out program management), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance for ferries employees), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing). Geographic activity includes Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 at $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance across 14 Washington ferry locations due October 9, 2026; and the City of Long Beach RFP (HR26753) for surgical procedure carve-out benefit management due October 7, 2026. The code shows no recent relevant activity for medical device procurement or surgical implantation services.
