UNSPSC 85695446: Insertion of internal fixation device into left carpal, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of internal fixation device into left carpal, 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 0PHN04Z

UNSPSC 85695446, Insertion of internal fixation device into left carpal, open approach (Commodity), does not align with state and local procurement activity. The recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to this code involve medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, occupational medical surveillance, and surgical benefit carve-out programs—none of which concern orthopedic surgical procedures or implantable medical devices. The code appears to be a clinical procedure classification misapplied to administrative and managed-care solicitations, creating a mismatch between the UNSPSC taxonomy and the work actually being bought.

No state and local opportunities support procurement of the specific clinical service or device named in the code. The source shows no recent state and local RFPs, RFQs, or ITBs soliciting orthopedic surgical procedures, carpal fixation implants, or related operative services. Vendors pursuing this code would find the recent-opportunity record unhelpful for business development planning.
