This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of right 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 0PBP3ZZ

UNSPSC 85695066 Excision of right metacarpal, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual medical and health services being procured by state and local agencies. The recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure networks, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which align with orthopedic surgical procedures or the specific anatomical intervention the code nominally describes. The issuing bodies include county government (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), city government (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), and specialized public bodies (pension boards, health systems, health care consortiums). The code shows significant miscategorization in state and local procurement systems; vendors pursuing contracts under this code should treat it as a tagging error rather than a signal of consistent procurement intent.

Recent activity concentrates in California (Santa Clara County, Long Beach), Arizona (Phoenix), Washington (Statewide Ferries), 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) providing disability medical record review and coordination of medical examinations for approximately 75 annual pension applications with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) requiring board-certified occupational physicians to conduct baseline and periodic medical examinations; the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026); and Collier County Board of County Commissioners' RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 active employees with historical annual spending of $8.7 million (RFP 25-8414, though the source lists an April 9, 2026 due date that has passed). The code itself provides little actionable guidance for business development targeting; vendors should verify the actual UNSPSC coding in specific solicitations before committing resources.
