UNSPSC 85694961: Reposition left metacarpal, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left metacarpal, percutaneous 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 0PSQ3ZZ

UNSPSC 85694961 Reposition left metacarpal, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the medical services state and local governments are actually purchasing. The recent solicitations tagged under this code cover occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency services for detained youth—none of which involve orthopedic surgical procedures or metacarpal repositioning. The tagging appears to be a classification error; the code's nominal scope bears no relationship to the work being solicited.

The source shows no relevant recent state and local opportunities under this code. The mismatch between the Commodity code's surgical procedure name and the issuing bodies' actual procurement needs (occupational medicine examinations, disability benefit administration, PBM services, and clinical staffing) suggests the code is not in active use for state and local contracting in the markets represented by the recent notices. Business development professionals should verify code assignment with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities tagged under this Commodity.
