UNSPSC 85724037: Revision of external fixation device in left hip joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of external fixation device in left hip 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 0SWB45Z

UNSPSC 85724037, Revision of external fixation device in left hip joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual health-services work state and local governments are currently procuring under this classification. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension benefits, surgical benefit carve-outs, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve orthopedic implant revision or percutaneous procedures. This mismatch suggests the code is being applied as a broad health-services classifier rather than to name a specific surgical intervention, indicating potential taxonomy misalignment at the issuing source level rather than active procurement demand for the named procedure.

Opportunities appear across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, issued by city retirement offices, county human-services and procurement departments, state transportation agencies, and regional health systems. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office seeks independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation requests occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers across 14 locations (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); the City of Long Beach solicits surgical benefit carve-out management for employee health plans (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System is building a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing (RFP RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code shows no coherent procurement pattern aligned to its stated scope and carries limited decision relevance for vendors targeting orthopedic device or surgical services markets.
