This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of internal fixation device in right patella, open 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 0QWD04Z

UNSPSC 85704610 Revision of internal fixation device in right patella, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The code nominally describes orthopedic surgical devices and procedures, but the recent solicitations tagged to this code address occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing—none of which involve orthopedic implants or patellar fixation devices. This mismatch suggests either a systematic tagging error in the source data or a breakdown in UNSPSC classification discipline at the issuing jurisdictions.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation occupational health surveillance), Arizona (City of Phoenix disability evaluations), California (City of Long Beach surgical benefit management and County of Santa Clara clinical staffing), Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefits), and Texas (Harris County youth detention medical services). No recent state and local opportunities directly solicit orthopedic implants, patellar fixation devices, or related surgical hardware under this code; prospectors should verify code assignment with issuing procurement offices before investing development resources or responding to future solicitations tagged to this Commodity.
