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 (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure; however, the recent state and local opportunities tagged to it do not reflect orthopedic repair services or medical procedures. Instead, the opportunities span comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employee health plans, virtual primary and urgent care platform services, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical director services. None of these solicitations align with the surgical repair scope the code name denotes, indicating a mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work state and local bodies are actually buying under this tag.

The issuing bodies across the opportunities include county government procurement offices (Muscogee County Prison in Georgia, Collier County in Florida, Monroe County in Florida) and specialized county health and safety departments (San Mateo County Behavioral Health and Recovery Services, Santa Monica Fire Department). The geographic spread spans Georgia and Florida, with one California opportunity. Because the opportunities do not reflect the code's stated scope, this code does not present a meaningful procurement category for business development professionals pursuing orthopedic surgical services or related medical devices and supplies under state and local contracts. Vendors should verify code assignment in their target solicitations before committing resources to pursuit under this tag.
