UNSPSC 85695089: Destruction of left metacarpal, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of left 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 0P5Q3ZZ

UNSPSC 85695089 Destruction of left metacarpal, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its procedural surgical scope. The six recent state and local opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs, and emergency youth detention medical services — none of which involve orthopedic destruction procedures on the metacarpal. The apparent tagging mismatch suggests the code may not be reliably used by state and local procurement offices for the work it nominally describes, or the opportunities were misclassified at posting.

The issuing bodies represent a geographic and jurisdictional mix including state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county agencies (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Santa Clara County Health System), and cities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Recent opportunity postings span Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with response dates from September through October 2026. Given the disconnect between the code's nominal scope and the opportunities posted under it, this code does not present a reliable procurement signal for vendors pursuing orthopedic or hand surgery services at state and local level.
