UNSPSC 85695044: Insertion of internal fixation device into left finger phalanx, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of internal fixation device into left 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 0PHV34Z

UNSPSC 85695044 Insertion of internal fixation device into left finger phalanx, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure — orthopedic fixation of a fractured finger bone — but the recent opportunities tagged under it are procurement solicitations for health services administration, pharmacy benefit management, virtual care platforms, peer support programs, and fire department medical direction. None of these solicitations involve the procurement or supply of orthopedic fixation devices, surgical implants, or operative services as the code's name suggests.

The mismatch between the code's scope and the actual work being solicited indicates that this code does not reflect meaningful state and local purchasing activity for orthopedic implants or finger phalanx procedures. The opportunities on record — including Muscogee County's inmate medical and pharmacy services (RFP due May 15, 2026), Collier County's pharmacy benefit management services (RFP due April 9, 2026), Monroe County's virtual primary and urgent care services (RFP due April 16, 2026), San Mateo County's peer support for peer workers program (RFP due July 2, 2025), and Santa Monica Fire Department's medical director position (RFP due October 16, 2025) — span healthcare administration and clinical services across Florida, Georgia, and California, but none involve the procurement of surgical devices or implantable orthopedic hardware. The code warrants close review for tagging accuracy or represents dormant purchasing activity under a misaligned classification.
