UNSPSC 85702731: Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left metatarsal, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left 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 0QPP3KZ

UNSPSC 85702731 Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left metatarsal, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local government procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure code, but recent opportunities tagged under it reflect administrative health services, benefits management, and occupational health surveillance — work that falls outside the scope of orthopedic surgical procedures.

The recent opportunities reveal a mismatch between the code taxonomy and what state and local bodies are actually buying. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office is soliciting independent medical evaluation services and disability record review (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach is procuring a Centers of Excellence carve-out program for surgical and specialty procedures (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation is requesting occupational medical surveillance across ferry operations (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services in a youth detention setting (RFI 071626BNM, due September 25, 2026); the County of Santa Clara Health System is building a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026); and Collier County is seeking pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 members (RFP 25-8414, historical annual spend approximately $8.7 million). The issuing bodies span state departments, county governments, cities, health systems, and special-purpose agencies across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. This code shows little relevant recent activity for orthopedic surgical intervention itself; the tagging appears to be a classification error or a catch-all placeholder within the issuing body's taxonomy rather than a signal of active procurement demand for the procedure described.
