UNSPSC 85702720: Reposition right metatarsal, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition right metatarsal, 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 0QSN3ZZ

UNSPSC 85702720 Reposition right metatarsal, percutaneous approach (Commodity) shows a categorical mismatch with actual state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—an orthopedic surgical procedure—does not align with the recent opportunities posted under this classification. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations under RFP RTMRFP26001 (due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach solicited surgical procedure carve-out benefit management for employee health plans under RFP HR26753 (due October 7, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation sought occupational medical surveillance services under RFP RFP20260825 (due October 9, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth (due September 25, 2026); Santa Clara County Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories under RFSQHHSFY270052 (due October 7, 2026); and Collier County issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services under RFP 25-8414 (originally due April 9, 2026). None of these opportunities involve procurement of the specific orthopedic surgical procedure the code describes.

The code carries minimal relevance to current state and local procurement. The issuing bodies—cities, counties, and a state transportation agency—are buying health plan administration, medical staffing, occupational health services, and pharmacy management, not surgical procedure provision. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida, but the opportunities represent administrative healthcare purchasing rather than clinical surgical services. Firms pursuing work under this code should verify whether their actual service offerings match health plan administration, occupational medicine, or temporary staffing in health systems rather than surgical procedure delivery, as the recent opportunities suggest the code is being used inconsistently with its stated scope.
