UNSPSC 85705200: Short bones foot, percutaneous approach-part A

This class includes one or more of 17 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the short bones of the foot with percutaneous approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0Q.

UNSPSC 85705200 Short bones foot, percutaneous approach-part A is a Class code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code's clinical specificity—procedural orthopedic intervention for foot bones—does not map to the scope of work state and local agencies are actually soliciting under this tag. Recent opportunities posted against the code involve occupational medical surveillance, disability medical record review and evaluation, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these services involve the percutaneous treatment of foot bone pathology that the code nominally describes.

The geographic and issuing-body spread of recent activity reflects standard state and local health and benefits procurement across multiple jurisdictions. The Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries) posted an occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026 with a $750,000 maximum contract value over five years; the City of Long Beach posted a surgical procedure carve-out RFP due October 7, 2026; the County of Santa Clara Health System posted a temporary health professional staffing qualification solicitation due October 7, 2026; Collier County Board of County Commissioners posted a pharmacy benefit management RFP; and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services due September 25, 2026. The code appears to be a misclassification artifact rather than an active procurement category for state and local buyers.
