This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of 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 0QRD0KZ

UNSPSC 85704628 Replacement of right patella with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its technical medical nomenclature and actual state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not involve orthopedic implant procurement or surgical procedures; instead, they reflect health plan administration, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. The code's nominal scope — a specific surgical implant procedure — does not align with the services state and local governments are actively buying in the market.

The opportunities posted under this code originate from diverse issuing bodies including county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System), county human resources and benefits offices (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county criminal justice agencies (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and city retirement offices (City of Phoenix). Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (due October 9, 2026). Activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Given the absence of procurement activity matching the code's stated scope, this category does not represent a viable pursuit opportunity under its current UNSPSC classification.
