This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left knee joint with internal fixation device, percutaneous 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 0SSD34Z

UNSPSC 85723775 Reposition left knee joint with internal fixation device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it encompass inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care delivery, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction—none of which involve orthopedic surgery or joint repositioning. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error in the source or a broad misapplication of the code to healthcare services procurement that falls outside its stated scope. State and local governments do procure healthcare services through this tier—intake screening, chronic care management, emergency services, specialty referrals, formulary development, telehealth platforms, and mental health support—but the orthopedic surgical procedure framing of the code itself does not reflect the work actually being solicited.

Recent opportunities span county correctional health systems, county employee health plan administration, county virtual care platforms, county behavioral health innovation projects, and municipal fire department medical direction, posted across Georgia, Florida, California, and other jurisdictions between February and April 2026. The Columbus Consolidated Government's Finance Department Purchasing Division issued RFP No. 26-0008 in April 2026 for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (response due May 15, 2026); Collier County Board of County Commissioners Procurement Services Division issued RFP 25-8414 in April 2026 for pharmacy benefit management covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members (response due April 9, 2026); Monroe County Board of County Commissioners issued an RFP in March 2026 for virtual primary and urgent care services for approximately 2,300 members (response due April 16, 2026); San Mateo County Health issued RFP No. 2025-007 for peer support services for peer workers under a Mental Health Services Act innovation pilot funded at $580,000 (response due July 2, 2025); and Santa Monica Fire Department issued an RFP for a Medical Director physician (response due October 16, 2025). The code shows no concentration among repeat buyers and appears to function primarily as a miscategorized catch-all for healthcare service procurement rather than a functional orthopedic surgical services code.
