UNSPSC 85705128: Release right tarsal, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to release right tarsal, 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 0QNL0ZZ

UNSPSC 85705128 Release right tarsal, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this classification. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure—release of the right tarsal bone via open surgical approach—yet the opportunities recorded against it encompass inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction. These solicitations reflect comprehensive healthcare administration and service delivery rather than orthopedic or podiatric surgery, indicating a significant mismatch between the code's surgical scope and actual procurement activity.

The geographic distribution of the four clearly misclassified healthcare opportunities spans Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), Georgia (Muscogee County), and California (San Mateo County), with one additional opportunity from Santa Monica, California. The Columbus Consolidated Government's Finance Department posted the Muscogee County Prison inmate medical and pharmacy services RFP (26-0008) on April 15, 2026, due May 15, 2026, as a two-year contract with optional three additional one-year renewals covering comprehensive intake screening, sick call, chronic care, pharmacy services, and dental services for approximately 576 offenders at a current monthly cost of $95,537.71. Collier County Board of County Commissioners Procurement Services issued RFP 25-8414 for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services on April 9, 2026, covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual pharmacy spending near $8.7 million. No recent opportunities of genuine surgical relevance to the tarsal code appear in the source material, suggesting that this code either receives minimal state and local procurement activity or continues to be misapplied to healthcare contracts outside its intended domain.
