UNSPSC 85704412: Excision of right fibula, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of 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 0QBJ4ZZ

UNSPSC 85704412 Excision of right fibula, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not match the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged to this code cover occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, specialty surgical benefit management, pharmacy benefit administration, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which involve fibula excision procedures. This mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding or that the code has been applied as a generic catch-all for medical services procurement rather than the narrow procedural service it nominally describes. The opportunities span independent medical evaluations for public safety retirement boards, occupational health examinations for ferry workers, surgical center-of-excellence carve-out programs for municipal employees, and temporary clinical staffing pools, indicating that jurisdictions are using this code for a broad range of health system contracting outside its intended scope.

Recent activity shows solicitations from state departments, county health systems, city retirement offices, and county commissioners across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP due October 16, 2026 for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations with a five-year maximum of $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFP due October 9, 2026 for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry locations; the County of Santa Clara Health System posted an RFSQ due October 7, 2026 for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories; and Collier County Board of County Commissioners issued an RFP due April 9, 2026 for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 7,200 enrolled members with historical annual spending of $8.7 million. The code shows no coherent procurement signal—the opportunities are functionally unrelated to each other and to the code's nominal description, making it unsuitable as a targeting vehicle for business development purposes under its stated definition.
