UNSPSC 85702758: Destruction of right metatarsal, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of 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 0Q5N3ZZ

UNSPSC 85702758 Destruction of right metatarsal, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it instead solicit independent medical evaluation services, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty emergency care for detained youth. None of these solicitations align with the code's stated scope—destruction of metatarsal bone via percutaneous surgical approach. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error or a systematic misalignment between the code definition and current procurement tagging practice. State and local procurement offices do occasionally procure occupational health services, disability medical evaluations, and health plan administration, but this code does not reliably signal those opportunities.

The recent opportunities span multiple jurisdictions and issuing bodies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical evaluation, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach (surgical procedure carve-out benefits, due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (occupational medical surveillance, due October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (specialty emergency medical services, due September 25, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management, due April 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing, due October 7, 2026). Activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no clear geographic concentration. Pursuit of opportunities under this code should be conditional on independent verification that the tagged UNSPSC classification actually reflects the work being solicited.
