UNSPSC 85704614: Supplement right patella with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right patella with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0QUD0KZ

UNSPSC 85704614 Supplement right patella with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes orthopedic surgical procedures. The recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code, however, show no alignment with the code's stated scope. Instead, the opportunities posted under 85704614 span inmate medical and pharmacy services, county pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support programs for mental health workers, and fire department medical director services — none of which involve orthopedic implants or surgical procedures. The mismatch between the code's technical medical description and the actual procurement activity suggests either systematic tagging error in the source system or that this code has been misapplied to health services contracting more broadly.

The issuing bodies include county government health and corrections operations (Muscogee County Prison, Collier County Board of Commissioners, Monroe County Board of Commissioners), a county behavioral health services division (San Mateo County Health), and municipal fire services (Santa Monica Fire Department), spanning Florida, Georgia, and California. Representative recent opportunities include RFP No. 26-0008 from Columbus Consolidated Government's Finance Department for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members (due April 9, 2026), and Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services for 2,300 county members (due April 16, 2026). Given the absence of any recent orthopedic surgical procurement activity under this code, pursuit should focus on clarifying whether the code assignment reflects systematic miscategorization or whether your internal classification of this code requires updating to reflect actual state and local buying patterns.
