UNSPSC 85702822: Reposition right metatarsal with internal fixation device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition right metatarsal with internal fixation device, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0QSN44Z

UNSPSC 85702822 Reposition right metatarsal with internal fixation device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal scope. The code's classification targets a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged to it do not procure surgical services or orthopedic devices aligned with the code's technical description. Instead, the posted solicitations span independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, temporary clinical staffing, surgical carve-out benefits administration, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve metatarsal repositioning or percutaneous endoscopic fixation. This mismatch suggests either miscoding in the source data or use of the code as a catch-all placeholder for broad healthcare procurement rather than the narrow procedural specification the code name denotes. State and local procurement offices appear to be tagging diverse medical, administrative, and occupational health services to this code without precision alignment to its intended commodity scope.

The recent opportunities reflect issuing bodies across Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas—primarily county governments (Phoenix Retirement Office, Long Beach, Collier County, Santa Clara Health System), a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), and a county juvenile probation department (Harris County). The City of Long Beach posted an RFP due October 7, 2026 for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence; the Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP (RTMRFP26001) due October 16, 2026 for independent medical evaluation services to support disability retirement determinations, with a five-year term and $750,000 maximum compensation; and Washington State Ferries posted an RFQ (RFP20260825) due October 9, 2026 for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals with physician-led examinations and a two-year term plus optional extensions. None of these activities aligns with the metatarsal fixation commodity the code nominally describes, signaling either systematic miscoding or a fundamental disconnect between the code's technical scope and how state and local procurement offices are deploying it in practice.
