UNSPSC 85723339 Replacement of right hip joint with ceramic on polyethylene synthetic substitute, cemented, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the scope of work state and local governments are actually soliciting. Recent opportunities tagged under this code involve independent medical evaluations, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical care carve-outs, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which align with orthopedic prosthetic implant procedures. The code appears to have been misapplied to medical services contracts by issuing bodies.

The recent opportunities span a geographically diverse set of issuing bodies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). The Phoenix RFP (RTMRFP26001) seeks independent medical evaluation services for disability retirement determinations, with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years and responses due October 16, 2026; the WSDOT RFP (RFP20260825) requests occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington locations with a two-year term and an apparent successful bidder announcement on October 20, 2026. Given the systematic mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being purchased, this code shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity.
