UNSPSC 85702628: Replacement of right metatarsal with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right metatarsal with nonautologous tissue 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 0QRN0KZ

UNSPSC 85702628, Replacement of right metatarsal with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code's nominal clinical scope — orthopedic surgical implant procedures — does not align with the recent opportunities tagged to it. The most recent state and local solicitations posted under this code are requesting independent medical evaluation services, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these services involve metatarsal replacement or tissue substitute implantation. The mismatch suggests either persistent miscoding by issuing bodies or a fundamental disconnect between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how state and local procurement offices are currently labeling medical and health services work.

Across the six recent opportunities in the block, issuing bodies are concentrated in health-system procurement offices, county human resources divisions, and public safety boards — the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations, due October 16, 2026 at $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals, due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference scheduled August 31, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ (RFSQHHSFY270052) for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026. Because the code's actual solicitation activity does not address the code's nominal scope, business development teams should verify their UNSPSC alignment with procurement offices before pursuing opportunities tagged to this code.
