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 0QBQ0ZZ

UNSPSC 85705142 Excision of right toe phalanx, open approach (Commodity) shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code represents a specific surgical procedure and does not align with the scope of work actually being solicited under it in the state and local marketplace.

The recent opportunities tagged to this code—inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county correctional facility, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care for county members, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical director services—are healthcare administration, management, and clinical direction contracts, not surgical procedure codes. The mismatch between the code's nominal definition and the actual work being procured suggests either a cataloging error in the source or a fundamental misalignment between UNSPSC taxonomy application and the services state and local agencies are actually buying. Practitioners pursuing healthcare services contracts with state and local bodies should verify code assignment during opportunity evaluation, as this code does not reflect genuine procurement activity in the healthcare services space.
