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 0QSMXZZ

UNSPSC 85704923 Reposition left tarsal, external approach is a Commodity code that nominally names a surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local procurement activity posted under this code bears no relevance to surgical intervention. The code shows no alignment between its abstract taxonomy label and the work state and local governments are actually buying. The opportunities posted under 85704923 span independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, temporary clinical staffing, and surgical carve-out benefit administration — none of which involve orthopedic surgery or tarsal repositioning. This appears to be a tagging misalignment in the source data rather than a reliable indicator of procurement activity in this commodity category.

The City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Phoenix Fire and Police Pension Boards) posted RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, budgeted at $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation posted RFP RFP20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference on August 31; Collier County Board of County Commissioners posted RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services (due April 9, 2026 with historical spend of $8.7 million annually); and the County of Santa Clara Health System posted a non-exclusive multiple-award vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories due October 7, 2026. Geographic activity spans Arizona, Washington, California, and Florida. Because the code's nominal scope does not match the posted opportunities, this code does not present a reliable signal for business development targeting orthopedic or related surgical services at state and local level.
