UNSPSC 85702629: Replacement of right metatarsal with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right metatarsal 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 0QRN0JZ

UNSPSC 85702629 "Replacement of right metatarsal with synthetic substitute, open approach" is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local solicitations posted under it show no activity aligned with surgical orthopedic procedures. The code shows little relevant recent activity. The six posted opportunities tagged to this code—including disability medical evaluations (Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-outs (Long Beach), occupational health surveillance (Washington State Ferries), youth detention healthcare (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary clinical staffing (Santa Clara)—address medical administration, occupational health screening, emergency care, pharmacy services, and personnel staffing, none of which correspond to metatarsal replacement or orthopedic implant procurement. The mismatch between the code's nominal surgical scope and the actual recent work being solicited suggests either a cataloging error in how opportunities were tagged or that procurement bodies are using this code outside its intended taxonomy tier.

No state and local government activity directly soliciting orthopedic implants, surgical supplies, or metatarsal-replacement hardware appears in the recent opportunities under this code. Firms pursuing orthopedic device or surgical-implant contracts should verify code alignment independently before responding to any future solicitations tagged to 85702629, as the current record does not support procurement targeting the product or service implied by the code name.
