This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of external fixation device from right finger 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 0PPT35Z

UNSPSC 85695015 Removal of external fixation device from right finger phalanx, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its clinical scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code—independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—do not involve removal of external fixation devices or orthopedic surgical procedures on finger bones. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either a systematic classification error in the state and local system or that the code is not in active use for procurement purposes.

The jurisdictions posting under this code include the City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County, Collier County, and Santa Clara County Health System, spanning Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Without representative opportunities that match the code's stated surgical procedure scope, this code does not present a clear market signal for business development in state and local procurement.
