UNSPSC 85704418: Excision of right femoral shaft, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of right 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 0QB84ZZ

UNSPSC 85704418 Excision of right femoral shaft, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged to this code cover independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out administration, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which align with performing or procuring femoral shaft excision procedures. The issuing bodies span a diverse mix: municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal employee health benefits programs (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county government benefits administration (Collier County), and county health systems (Santa Clara County). This breadth suggests either a cataloging mismatch or use of the code as a catch-all placeholder for healthcare-related acquisitions that do not fit neatly into existing taxonomy.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach, Santa Clara), Washington (state-level), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County), with no clear concentration. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferries employees across 14 Washington locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQ to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated commodity definition; vendors pursuing opportunities under this classification should verify the actual scope of work required before committing resources.
