UNSPSC 85705021: Supplement left toe phalanx with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left toe phalanx with nonautologous tissue substitute, open 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 0QUR0KZ

UNSPSC 85705021 Supplement left toe phalanx with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—supplementation of the left toe bone with nonautologous tissue in an open surgical approach—but recent opportunities posted under this code do not align with that clinical specification. Instead, the tagged solicitations cover independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these activities involve orthopedic procedural services or tissue supplementation. The mismatch between the code's procedural definition and the actual work being solicited suggests either miscoding by state and local procurement offices or a fundamental misalignment between this Commodity code and current buying patterns in state and local health and benefits administration.

State and local issuing bodies represented in the recent-opportunity block include county governments, city procurement offices, and state health departments. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office (on behalf of pension boards) issued RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026; the City of Long Beach posted RFP HR26753 for surgical benefit carve-out administration due October 7, 2026; the Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries) posted RFP RFP20260825 for occupational medical surveillance due October 9, 2026; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued RFI 071626BNM for emergency and specialty medical services due September 25, 2026; and Collier County Board of County Commissioners posted RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management due April 9, 2026. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Given the consistent mismatch between the code definition and the solicitations tagged under it, pursuit is not recommended without verification that the code properly reflects the intended scope of work.
