UNSPSC 85724224 Insertion of external fixation device into left hip joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve orthopedic fixation devices or the surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either miscoding at the issuing body level or that this code is not actively used for substantive state and local contracting in its intended scope.

The recent opportunities posted under this code are concentrated in Florida (Collier County and Monroe County) and Georgia (Muscogee County), with one California opportunity (San Mateo County). Issuing bodies include county governments and county health-related divisions. Representative solicitations include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (RFP, due May 15, 2026, current monthly cost $95,537.71 under incumbent CorrectHealth Companies LLC); Collier County Board of County Commissioners' RFP 25-8414 for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual pharmacy spending of approximately $8.7 million (RFP, due April 9, 2026); Monroe County's RFP for Virtual Primary Care and 24/7 Urgent Care Services for approximately 2,300 county members (RFP, due April 16, 2026); San Mateo County's RFP No. 2025-007 for a Mental Health Services Act Innovation Pilot Project focused on peer support for peer workers with total funding of $580,000 (RFP, due July 2, 2025); and the Santa Monica Fire Department's RFP for a Fire Department Medical Director (RFP, due October 16, 2025). The code shows no relevant recent activity for its stated orthopedic device and procedure scope.
