UNSPSC 85695200: Long bones hand, percutaneous endoscopic approach-part B

This class includes one or more of 17 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the long bones of the hand with percutaneous endoscopic approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0P.

UNSPSC 85695200 Long bones hand, percutaneous endoscopic approach-part B is a Class code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal medical device scope and the actual work state and local governments are procuring under this tag. The recent opportunities posted against this code span occupational health surveillance, pension disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty surgical carve-out benefits — none of which involve orthopedic implants or hand-surgery devices. This mismatch suggests the code has been applied inconsistently or erroneously across diverse health administration and occupational medicine solicitations rather than reflecting procurement of the specific medical device implied by the code name.

The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of Washington State Ferries), county jurisdictions (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and municipalities (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), with no standout repeat buyer pattern in the recent block. Recent activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001) due October 16, 2026 for independent medical evaluation services supporting public safety disability determinations; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (RFP20260825) due October 9, 2026 for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification-pool RFQ (RFSQHHSFY270052) due October 7, 2026 for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. Given the lack of recent device-procurement activity and the divergence between code definition and posted opportunities, this code warrants monitoring for corrected future tagging rather than immediate pursuit.
