UNSPSC 85723307 Replacement of left hip joint with ceramic on polyethylene synthetic substitute, uncemented, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged to this code cover occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, disability medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-outs, and juvenile detention healthcare — none of which involve orthopedic joint replacement procedures or surgical implants. The code appears to have been applied as a catch-all taxonomy marker for health services procurement rather than reflecting specific procurement of the hip joint replacement device or procedure the code nominally describes. State and local issuers applying this code—including the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System—are managing employee health benefits, occupational health programs, detention facility healthcare, and temporary clinical staffing rather than purchasing orthopedic implants or surgical procedures.

The geographic spread includes Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington (statewide via WSF), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County), with no clear concentration. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) focused on disability benefit determinations for public safety personnel; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, pre-bid August 31, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award qualification pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). This code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated scope of orthopedic implant procedures.
