UNSPSC 85702723: Replacement of left metatarsal with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left metatarsal with nonautologous tissue 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 0QRP3KZ

UNSPSC 85702723 Replacement of left metatarsal with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it do not align with surgical implant procurement or orthopedic supply. Instead, the tagged solicitations span independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical and medical procedure benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance services, emergency and specialty healthcare for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve procurement of metatarsal replacements or surgical implants. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the source data or that this code is being used as a catch-all for healthcare services unrelated to its stated commodity definition.

Without solicitations actually purchasing metatarsal implants or related orthopedic surgical supplies under this code, state and local procurement professionals should treat this code as inactive for implant or device procurement purposes. Entities seeking metatarsal replacement devices or related orthopedic implant supply contracts should verify the correct UNSPSC classification through their target procurement offices before pursuing opportunities marked under 85702723.
