UNSPSC 85723960: Fusion of left hip 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 hip 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 0SGB34Z

UNSPSC 85723960 Fusion of left hip joint with internal fixation device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose nominal title does not reflect the state and local procurement activity it currently tags. The recent solicitations posted under this code span medical and healthcare administrative services unrelated to orthopedic surgical procedures: independent medical evaluation and disability determination support for public safety pension boards, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, surgical care carve-out programs for municipal employee health plans, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. The issuing bodies are cities, counties, and regional health systems procuring healthcare administration and staffing services rather than surgical implants or procedures. The code shows little relevant recent activity for its stated scope.

The geographic spread includes Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach, Collier County, County of Santa Clara), Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department). Representative opportunities include the Phoenix Retirement Office's October 16, 2026 RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations, budgeted at $750,000 over five years (RTMRFP26001); the Washington State Ferries' October 9, 2026 RFQ for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington locations, with physician-led examinations and record management (RFP20260825); and the Santa Clara County Health System's October 7, 2026 RFSQ to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing across thirteen specialty categories, including orthopedic services (RFSQHHSFY270052). The mismatch between the code's orthopedic surgical procedure title and the actual healthcare services being solicited suggests the code may have been applied in error or a data classification issue exists within state or local procurement systems.
