UNSPSC 85724018: Revision of synthetic substitute in left knee joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in left knee joint, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0SWD4JZ

UNSPSC 85724018 Revision of synthetic substitute in left knee joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment with recent state and local government procurement activity. The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 soliciting under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs, pharmacy benefit management, specialty emergency services for youth in custody, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involves orthopedic joint revision procedures or surgical implants. The code designation appears to reflect a medical procedure classification that state procurement systems have applied to administrative health service contracts in error.

The mismatch suggests that state and local agencies may have tagged these opportunities with clinical procedure codes rather than administrative or service-delivery codes. Activity appears across multiple jurisdictions — the City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County, Collier County, and Santa Clara County — but the work being solicited does not involve the orthopedic surgery implant services the code nominally describes. Bid or proposal responses to these opportunities should be evaluated for relevance to the actual scope of work (occupational health administration, medical record summary services, PBM networks, temporary staffing) rather than the code assignment itself. Firms pursuing work in orthopedic surgery implants or joint revision services should verify that opportunities are tagged under appropriate codes before investment in pursuit.
