UNSPSC 85723848: Removal of synthetic substitute from right hip joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from right hip joint, 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 0SP93JZ

UNSPSC 85723848, Removal of synthetic substitute from right hip joint, percutaneous approach (Commodity), does not align with recent state and local procurement activity in the source material. The UNSPSC code describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code involve medical staffing, evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, and occupational health surveillance—none of which constitute orthopedic joint implant removal or replacement procedures. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the originating procurement system or a misalignment between the code's procedural nomenclature and the way state and local agencies classify health services contracting.

No recent state and local contract opportunities for actual orthopedic joint implant removal or replacement procedures appear in the source material under this code. The solicitations named—including the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach surgical benefit carve-out RFP (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026)—address ancillary healthcare contracting, benefits administration, and workforce health services rather than surgical implant procurement or removal procedures themselves. State and local buyers should verify the correct commodity code for orthopedic devices or surgical services before developing business strategy under this code.
