UNSPSC 85695114: Revision of external fixation device in left thumb phalanx, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of external fixation device in left thumb phalanx, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0PWS45Z

UNSPSC 85695114, Revision of external fixation device in left thumb phalanx, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its clinical procedure description. The recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure networks, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for youth in detention — none of which correspond to orthopedic device revision procedures or the procedural taxonomy the code nominates. The mismatch suggests either a classification or posting error within the issuing jurisdictions' procurement systems rather than genuine demand for the specific service the code describes.

The six most recent state and local opportunities attributed to this code originate from Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington jurisdictions including the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System. These represent a mix of city, county, state agency, and special-purpose health system issuers. The City of Long Beach's surgical procedure carve-out (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026) and the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance services (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) are representative of the clinical and administrative health services being sourced, neither of which align with orthopedic device procurement or implant revision surgery. Given the consistent mismatch between the code's stated scope and the actual opportunities attributed to it, firms pursuing this code should verify classification with issuing procurement offices before investing in pursuit strategy.
