UNSPSC 85723441: Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left hip joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left hip 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 0SPB0KZ

UNSPSC 85723441, Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left hip joint, open approach, is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code span independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve the orthopedic surgical procedure the code describes. The mismatch reflects a common practice in state and local procurement systems where health-service and medical-administration categories are tagged inconsistently or where legacy classification does not track operational procurement behavior.

State and local purchasing offices in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington posted these opportunities between July and August 2026, but they reflect public-sector demand for health-plan administration, occupational screening, temporary clinical staffing, and emergency-care capacity rather than any volume of orthopedic implant removal procedures. The Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and Santa Clara Health System all appear, but their needs cluster around insurance, occupational health compliance, and workforce augmentation. Because the code's recent activity does not align with the procedure it nominally describes, practitioners pursuing opportunities under this code should verify each notice's actual scope before investing in proposal development.
