UNSPSC 85723266: Replacement of left hip joint, acetabular surface with polyethylene synthetic substitute, cemented, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left hip joint, acetabular surface with polyethylene synthetic substitute, cemented, 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 0SRE009

UNSPSC 85723266 Replacement of left hip joint, acetabular surface with polyethylene synthetic substitute, cemented, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this classification involve occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out programs—none of which involve hip joint replacement procedures or implantable medical devices. This represents a significant mismatch between the code's nominal scope and what state and local buyers are actually soliciting under it.

The geographic and issuing-body spread across recent opportunities shows activity in Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County). Cities, counties, state departments, and county health systems are all represented. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). However, the code shows little relevant activity for orthopedic implants or surgical procedures themselves—vendors pursuing state and local contracts under this code should verify the actual work being solicited in each jurisdiction's RFP rather than rely on the code's stated scope.
