UNSPSC 85705044: Reposition left tarsal with external fixation device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left tarsal with external fixation device, 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 0QSM05Z

The UNSPSC 85705044 Commodity code, "Reposition left tarsal with external fixation device, open approach," shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but recent opportunities tagged under this code reflect healthcare services procurement across a broad spectrum — inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve tarsal repositioning or orthopedic surgical devices. The mismatch between the code's surgical scope and the healthcare administration and service delivery work actually appearing in state and local notices suggests either systematic miscoding in source records or that this commodity code does not drive meaningful procurement activity in the state and local market.

The four recent opportunities span Georgia, Florida, and California jurisdictions, representing county government and municipal agencies rather than any organized category of buyers. Columbus Consolidated Government in Georgia posted an RFP on April 15, 2026 (due May 15, 2026) for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison; Collier County, Florida issued an RFP on April 9, 2026 for pharmacy benefit management services covering 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members; Monroe County, Florida issued an RFP on March 14, 2026 (due April 16, 2026) for virtual primary and urgent care services; San Mateo County, California posted an RFP on February 25, 2026 for peer support services; and Santa Monica Fire Department issued an RFP on February 25, 2026 for a medical director. No repeat issuing bodies appear in the recent record, and no geographic concentration is evident. Given the absence of solicitations for the orthopedic surgical service the code describes, this code does not present a meaningful procurement opportunity under its nominal scope.
