UNSPSC 85723106: Resection of right hip joint, 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 0ST90ZZ

UNSPSC 85723106 Resection of right hip joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the five most recent state and local contract opportunities tagged with this code do not involve surgical services, orthopedic care, or inpatient medical procedures. Instead, the tagged solicitations cover inmate medical and pharmacy services management, pharmacy benefit administration, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support programs for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which align with hip joint resection or related surgical intervention.

The mismatch between code and solicitation scope suggests either a cataloging error in the issuing bodies' UNSPSC taxonomy or that this code is not actively used by state and local procurement offices for surgical services contracting. Firms pursuing orthopedic surgical services, surgical facility management, or related medical device supply should verify the correct UNSPSC codes with procurement offices before responding to opportunities tagged under this code, as reliance on the current tagging would misdirect business development effort.
