UNSPSC 85724246: Fusion of left knee joint with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of left knee joint with autologous tissue substitute, 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 0SGD47Z

UNSPSC 85724246 Fusion of left knee joint with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its procedural medical scope. The six recent opportunities tagged under this code — independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical carve-out benefits for municipal employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — do not involve orthopedic surgical procedures or tissue-substitute implant procurement. The mismatch between the code's nominal description and the actual work being solicited suggests either a tagging error in the source data or that state and local governments are not currently purchasing this specific surgical procedure through open procurement channels.

State and local buyers appear to be using this code range for general health services contracting rather than for discrete clinical procedures. The issuing bodies span diverse sectors — city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal employee benefits (Long Beach), transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county health systems (Santa Clara, Collier County), and county government benefits administration — but none of the solicitations documented involve orthopedic implants, autografts, or surgical procedure procurement. Without evidence of actual procurement activity aligned to the code's clinical scope, the code warrants a skip for firms targeting state and local orthopedic supply or surgical services opportunities.
