This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of left lower leg 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 0Y0J0JZ

UNSPSC 85782349 Alteration of left lower leg with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal description does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth — none of which involve prosthetic alteration or orthopedic surgery. The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county human resources and health departments (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), and city employee benefits divisions (City of Long Beach). This appears to be a taxonomy mismatch; the code itself does not reflect the work actually being solicited or awarded under it in the state and local market.

Recent solicitations posted under this code are geographically dispersed across California, Florida, Texas, Washington, and Arizona. The Washington State Department of Transportation issued RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services on behalf of the Washington State Ferries (due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations (due October 16, 2026, with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years); the City of Long Beach posted HR26753 for a surgical benefit carve-out program serving approximately 3,800 enrolled employees and retirees (due October 7, 2026, with contract execution anticipated for April 1, 2027); Collier County Board of County Commissioners posted RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members (due April 9, 2026, with historical annual pharmacy spending of approximately $8.7 million); and the County of Santa Clara Health System posted RFSQHHSFY270052 for a non-exclusive qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). Given the code-to-scope disconnect, vendors should verify code assignment with issuing bodies before developing proposals under this classification.
