This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right knee region with synthetic substitute, open 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 0YUF0JZ

UNSPSC 85782211 Supplement right knee region with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope of surgical knee replacement procedures. The code's name describes a specific orthopedic surgical intervention, yet the state and local opportunities recently tagged to it span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgery benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve orthopedic implants or knee replacement supply. The mismatch suggests either misclassification in the source data or a fundamental disconnect between the code's clinical intent and how state and local procurement offices are tagging these opportunities.

Activity spans multiple states and issuing bodies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Representative recent opportunities include the Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Long Beach RFP for surgery benefit carve-out programs spanning knee, hip, orthopedic, shoulder, spine, heart, and weight loss procedures (due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Ferries' RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026). None of these solicitations procure orthopedic implants, devices, or surgical supplies. Bidders should verify code accuracy before investing pursuit effort, as the opportunities currently tagged to this Commodity do not align with prosthetic knee replacement products or services.
