This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of left 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 0Y0G0JZ

UNSPSC 85782357 Alteration of left knee region with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local procurement activity in the recent-opportunities block. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure—knee replacement with a prosthetic implant—yet the six most recent state and local solicitations posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services for public safety retirement systems, surgical benefit carve-out programs, specialty and emergency healthcare for youth in detention, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these opportunities solicit knee replacement procedures, implants, or related surgical materials or supplies.

The issuing bodies soliciting under this code include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county boards and health systems (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara Health System), and municipal retirement boards (City of Phoenix Retirement Office). The geographic spread spans Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. The code shows little relevant recent activity tied to its nominal surgical scope; the mismatch between the code's stated definition and the scope of work actually being procured suggests a classification error in the state and local sourcing systems rather than active procurement demand for knee replacement procedures at the state or local level.
