UNSPSC 85704932: Removal of internal fixation device from right toe phalanx, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of internal fixation device from right toe phalanx, external 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 0QPQX4Z

UNSPSC 85704932, Removal of internal fixation device from right toe phalanx, external approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the state and local opportunities recently tagged under it do not involve orthopedic device removal or toe procedures. Instead, recent solicitations address occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical record summarization, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical center-of-excellence networks, and emergency services for detained youth — none of which align with the code's procedural definition.

The mismatch between the code's stated scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either misclassification in the source system or a temporary tagging anomaly. Because no recent opportunities substantively involve removal of internal fixation devices or related orthopedic surgery, no representative examples, issuing-body pattern, or geographic concentration can be drawn from the record. Firms pursuing orthopedic device procurement or orthopedic surgical services should verify code assignment before bidding under this category.
