UNSPSC 85704739: Removal of external fixation device from right patella, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of external fixation device from right patella, percutaneous 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 0QPD35Z

UNSPSC 85704739, Removal of external fixation device from right patella, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that does not reflect the scope of work being actively solicited under it by state and local governments. The recent opportunities posted against this code involve comprehensive healthcare delivery services—inmate medical and pharmacy administration, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care platforms, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical director services—none of which align with the orthopedic surgical procedure named in the code. The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in how opportunities are being tagged or that this code does not accurately capture active procurement activity in the state and local market.

The five most recent opportunities span Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), Georgia (Columbus Consolidated Government), California (San Mateo County), and California (Santa Monica), with response dates ranging from October 2025 through July 2026. Issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners, consolidated city governments, and special health and behavioral health divisions. Without opportunities genuinely aligned to the code's orthopedic surgical scope, no meaningful characterization of active market demand, repeat buyers, or procurement patterns under UNSPSC 85704739 can be drawn from the available data.
