This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right carpal with synthetic substitute, 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 0PRM3JZ

UNSPSC 85695527 Replacement of right carpal with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not reflect orthopedic implant procurement or procedure-specific medical device sales. Instead, the code shows activity in occupational health services, disability medical evaluation, healthcare benefit administration, pharmacy management, and temporary clinical staffing—none of which align with carpal replacement implants or surgical supplies. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity suggests the code has little relevant recent activity in state and local markets for its stated purpose.

Recent opportunities posted under this code span multiple states and issuing bodies. The Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of Washington State Ferries, issued RFP20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services with proposals due October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference scheduled for August 31, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, on behalf of the Phoenix Fire Pension Board and Phoenix Police Pension Board, issued RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services with proposals due October 16, 2026 at a maximum compensation of $750,000 over five years; the City of Long Beach issued HR26753 for a surgical benefit carve-out program with proposals due October 7, 2026; Collier County issued an RFP for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth; and the County of Santa Clara Health System solicited temporary health professional staffing services with proposals due October 7, 2026. The geographic spread includes Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida, with issuing bodies limited to city governments, county boards, and state agency systems. The code does not reflect recent procurement of orthopedic implants or surgical procedure-specific supplies in the state and local market.
