UNSPSC 85723943: Fusion of left knee joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of left knee 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 0SGD3ZZ

UNSPSC 85723943 Fusion of left knee joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code with little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a surgical orthopedic procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not involve knee fusion surgery or procurement of surgical services aligned with the code's medical procedure scope.

Recent solicitations under this code—including independent medical evaluation services for retirement pension boards (City of Phoenix), surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit management (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation), specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County, Florida), and temporary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara Health System)—represent administrative healthcare services, benefits management, and occupational health oversight rather than orthopedic surgical procedures. The mismatch suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or use of the code as a catch-all for health services procurement without regard to its specific procedural definition. No opportunities involve actual knee fusion procedures, orthopedic implants, surgical supplies, or facility-based surgical care procurement.
