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 0SN90ZZ

UNSPSC 85723466 Release right hip joint, open approach is a Commodity code that captures surgical orthopedic procedures performed within correctional, county, municipal, and regional health systems — but the recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not reflect orthopedic surgical services. Instead, the tagged opportunities reveal a systematic mismatch: the code is appearing in solicitations for correctional healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve hip joint surgery or orthopedic procedures. The Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026) includes comprehensive sick call, chronic care management, and in-clinic laboratory services but no surgical capability. Collier County's Pharmacy Benefit Management RFP (due April 9, 2026) addresses claims processing and specialty drug administration for 2,400 county employees. Monroe County's virtual primary and urgent care RFP (due April 16, 2026) and San Mateo County's peer support pilot (due July 2, 2025) similarly fall outside orthopedic surgical scope. These opportunities span counties in Georgia, Florida, and California, with issuing bodies including county commissioners' offices, consolidated city governments, county health and behavioral services departments, and fire departments.

The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The five most recent opportunities posted between February and April 2026 represent healthcare administration, pharmacy services, and behavioral health support — not orthopedic surgery or joint procedures. Procurement professionals evaluating this code should verify whether state and local health systems, correctional agencies, or regional medical authorities are actually using 85723466 for hip joint surgeries, or whether the tagging reflects a classification error in issuing bodies' UNSPSC assignment practices. Without evidence of actual hip joint surgical procurement, the code warrants a skip rather than pursuit.
