UNSPSC 85723948: Fusion of left knee joint with internal fixation device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of 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 0SGD34Z

UNSPSC 85723948 Fusion of left knee joint with internal fixation device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the six recent opportunities tagged under it encompass occupational medical surveillance, disability evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, surgical Center of Excellence carve-out programs, emergency medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with procurement of surgical implants, devices, or procedure-specific clinical services. The mismatch indicates either a data-entry error in how opportunities were tagged to this code or a fundamental misalignment between the code's clinical scope and how state and local bodies are actually using it in their procurement taxonomy.

The recent opportunities represent a broader medical-services procurement landscape across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, but they do not reflect actual buying under this Commodity code. Firms evaluating whether to pursue activity coded as 85723948 should verify the code assignment directly with issuing procurement offices before committing resources, as the categorization does not currently map to discretely marketed medical-device or surgical-procedure opportunities in state and local channels.
