This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of liner from left knee joint, 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 0SPD09Z

UNSPSC 85723425 Removal of liner from left knee joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the most recent opportunities posted under this code — including independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-out programs for city employees (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers (Washington State Department of Transportation), youth detention healthcare services (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara) — are administrative healthcare contracting, benefits program management, and ancillary staffing services entirely unrelated to orthopedic surgical procedures. The mismatch between the code's procedural scope and the healthcare administration and staffing work actually being tagged suggests either systemic miscoding or that the code is not actively used for its intended commodity.

No state or local government is currently soliciting removal of left knee joint liners or related orthopedic surgical services under this code. The volume and recency of miscoded opportunities in the underlying data does not support meaningful market signal. Business development professionals should verify the applicable UNSPSC codes for orthopedic surgical supplies, implants, or device procurement through direct engagement with target procurement offices rather than relying on this code's current classification.
