UNSPSC 85724203: Inspection of left knee joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to inspection of 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 0SJD4ZZ

UNSPSC 85724203 Inspection of left knee joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not map to the recent state and local procurement activity currently associated with it in the available record. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 and tagged under this code reflect medical services procurement across disability evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve knee arthroscopy or related endoscopic procedures. The mismatch indicates either a broad misclassification at the point of posting or a fundamental divergence between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how state and local procurement systems are currently tagging medical-services opportunities.

The issuing bodies across these opportunities span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and probation (Harris County, Santa Clara County, Collier County), municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), and municipal employee-benefits programs (City of Long Beach), with no standout repeat buyer under this code. Geographic activity includes Washington, Arizona, Texas, Florida, and California. Representative recent solicitations include the Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) to support disability determinations for approximately 75 annual applications at $750,000 over five years; the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) offering knee, hip, shoulder, spine, and oncology procedures through Centers of Excellence; and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) requiring board-certified occupational medicine physicians across 14 ferry terminal and vessel locations. The code shows no recent solicitation activity aligned with its stated arthroscopic procedure scope.
