UNSPSC 85723227: Replacement of left hip joint, femoral surface with ceramic synthetic substitute, uncemented, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left hip joint, femoral surface with ceramic synthetic substitute, uncemented, 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 0SRS03A

UNSPSC 85723227 Replacement of left hip joint, femoral surface with ceramic synthetic substitute, uncemented, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure. However, the recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show little alignment with the code's surgical-procedure scope. Instead, the opportunities reflect health plan administration, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve hip replacement implants or orthopedic device procurement. The mismatch suggests either inconsistent coding practice by the issuing bodies or that this code has been applied to broader healthcare service categories in state and local procurement systems. The code shows no recent activity directly purchasing hip joint replacement devices, surgical supplies, or procedure-related materials from state or local health departments, counties, or municipalities.

The most recent opportunities posted under this code between July and September 2026 span Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with Phoenix, Long Beach, Collier County, Santa Clara County, Harris County, and the Washington State Department of Transportation representing the issuing bodies. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations; the City of Long Beach's RFP (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) for surgical procedure Centers of Excellence and bundled payment networks covering knee, hip, orthopedic, and other specialty care; and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) for occupational medical surveillance services across ferry system locations. Given the absence of device procurement or orthopedic-surgery-specific opportunities, this code does not represent an active procurement category for hip joint replacements in state and local markets.
