UNSPSC 85695426: Replacement of left carpal with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left carpal with synthetic substitute, open 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 0PRN0JZ

UNSPSC 85695426 Replacement of left carpal with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure on the wrist, but the six recent opportunities tagged under it span independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for government employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve orthopedic implants or wrist surgery procurement. The mismatch suggests the code was applied incorrectly during opportunity tagging or that state and local bodies are not actively procuring the specific procedure this Commodity describes.

The issuing bodies across these opportunities include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal employee benefit programs (Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington), county probation systems (Harris County), county human resources divisions (Collier County), and public health systems (Santa Clara County). The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) and the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry system workers (due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026). For business development purposes, this code should be monitored for corrected tagging or for future surgical supply or implant-specific state and local procurement activity, but current activity is immaterial to the code's stated scope.
