UNSPSC 85695003: Repair left thumb phalanx, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair left thumb phalanx, 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 0PQS3ZZ

UNSPSC 85695003 Repair left thumb phalanx, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it show minimal alignment with this clinical specification. The opportunities posted under this code instead reflect a broad and heterogeneous mix of health service procurements: independent medical evaluations for public safety pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for transportation workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. The code appears to be a classification mismatch; none of the recent opportunities solicit thumb phalanx repair services or related orthopedic surgical procedures. State and local issuers deploying this code are municipal retirement boards, city and county health system administrators, county human resources departments, and state transportation agencies.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Arizona (Phoenix Fire and Police Pension Boards), California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), Washington State (Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferries personnel (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, with pre-bid conference August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026, non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle with no guaranteed work). The code shows recent procurement activity but presents a poor fit between its nominal scope and the actual work being bought.
