UNSPSC 85704380: Insertion of internal fixation device into right upper femur, 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 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 0QH644Z

UNSPSC 85704380 Insertion of internal fixation device into right upper femur, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its clinical procedure title and the state and local procurement activity actually tagged under it. The recent opportunities associated with this code do not involve orthopedic surgical devices, implants, or femur fixation work. Instead, they span occupational health surveillance services, disability medical evaluation, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which directly relate to orthopedic implant procurement or surgical procedure scheduling.

The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding of these opportunities within state and local procurement systems or that this UNSPSC category does not currently drive material procurement volume in the state and local market. The issuing bodies posting under this code include the City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System, representing a mix of municipal, county, and state entities. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Given the disconnect between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited, this code warrants close attention before pursuit to confirm whether opportunities posted under it will actually require orthopedic implant supply, installation, or related device services.
