This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of liner 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 0SPB09Z

UNSPSC 85723444 Removal of liner from left hip joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the state and local opportunities recently tagged to it do not concern orthopedic or joint-replacement surgery. Instead, the recent solicitations cover independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, specialty surgical care carve-out networks for municipal employees, emergency and inpatient care for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—a mismatch that reflects either inconsistent coding discipline or tagging errors rather than genuine procurement of hip-joint procedures under this code.

The most recent opportunity associated with the code is the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), which concerns disability benefit determinations for public safety personnel, not orthopedic surgery. Other recent postings originate from the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational surveillance services, due October 9, 2026), the City of Long Beach (surgical procedure carve-outs through Centers of Excellence including hip and orthopedic procedures, due October 7, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation (emergency and specialty care for detained youth, due September 25, 2026), Collier County (pharmacy benefit management, due April 9, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System (temporary health professional staffing including some ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026). Given the lack of alignment between the code's stated scope and the actual opportunities posted against it, the code does not present a reliable signal for business development targeting hip-joint removal procedures in state and local procurement.
