UNSPSC 85723267: Replacement of left knee joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left knee joint 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 0SRD0KZ

UNSPSC 85723267 Replacement of left knee joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code with no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its scope. The code's narrow focus on a specific orthopedic surgical procedure does not map to what state and local governments are actually buying under this UNSPSC tag. Recent opportunities posted under the code involve independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, occupational medical surveillance, and surgical carve-out benefit programs — none of which involve knee joint replacement procedures or orthopedic implants. The source shows no jurisdictions soliciting knee joint replacement materials, implant supply contracts, surgical procedure bundling that includes this specific procedure as a line item, or related hardware.

State and local procurement offices appear to have misclassified these health-services opportunities under an orthopedic-device code. The recent activity includes the City of Phoenix Retirement Office requesting independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach seeking surgical carve-out benefit management through Centers of Excellence networks for multiple procedure types including orthopedic services (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation requesting occupational medical surveillance (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issuing an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (RFI 071626BNM, due September 25, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners seeking pharmacy benefit management services (RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (RFSQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). These solicitations span Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. No recent opportunities involve procurement of knee replacement procedures, implants, or related surgical supplies under this code. Vendors pursuing state and local business in orthopedic devices, surgical implants, or procedure-specific carve-out networks should cross-reference different UNSPSC codes aligned to medical-device supply or health-plan benefit management; this commodity code is not an active procurement vehicle at present.
