UNSPSC 85723311: Replacement of left hip joint with ceramic 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 with ceramic 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 0SRB039

UNSPSC 85723311 Replacement of left hip joint with ceramic synthetic substitute, cemented, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical implant procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, pension disability medical evaluations, and surgical care coordination networks — none of which involve hip replacement implants or orthopedic procedures as primary deliverables. State and local governments are not currently soliciting hip joint replacements as standalone procurement line items under this code; instead, they are buying bundled medical services, staffing arrangements, and administrative support functions that may incidentally reference orthopedic care within larger health-care programs.

The mismatch between the code's technical scope and the actual work being bought suggests this Commodity code does not represent an active procurement category in state and local markets today. The issuing bodies in the recent-opportunities block — the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of Commissioners, and Santa Clara County Health System — are soliciting medical administrative and staffing services rather than implantable devices. No single representative opportunity mirrors the hip replacement implant specification embedded in the code itself. Practitioners should treat this code as dormant for state and local business development purposes and verify whether opportunities posted under it reflect genuine demand for orthopedic implants or represent classification errors by issuing procurement offices.
