UNSPSC 85705240: Reposition left tarsal with external fixation device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left tarsal with external fixation device, percutaneous 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 0QSM35Z

UNSPSC 85705240 Reposition left tarsal with external fixation device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code's medical-procedure naming suggests orthopedic surgical services, yet the state and local opportunities tagged under it span inmate healthcare management, pharmacy benefit administration, virtual primary care delivery, peer support services for mental health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve tarsal bone repositioning or external fixation devices. The mismatch indicates either systematic miscoding or tag drift within the source jurisdictions' procurement systems.

The five most recent state and local opportunities posted under this code originate from four states: Georgia (Muscogee County / Columbus Consolidated Government), Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), California (San Mateo County), and California (Santa Monica Fire Department). Due dates span July 2, 2025 through May 15, 2026. Representative opportunities include Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP No. 26-0008 (posted April 15, 2026; due May 15, 2026) for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison, structured as a two-year contract with optional three one-year renewals at a current monthly cost of $95,537.71; Collier County Board of County Commissioners' RFP 25-8414 (posted April 9, 2026; due April 9, 2026) for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 7,200 members with historical annual pharmacy spending of $8.7 million; and Monroe County Board of County Commissioners' RFP (posted March 14, 2026; due April 16, 2026) for virtual primary and urgent care services serving approximately 2,300 county members. Issuers include county governments, a consolidated city-county government, and county health departments. Given the absence of opportunities demonstrating actual procurement under the code's stated clinical scope, firms pursuing tarsal repositioning or external fixation services should treat this code as inactive for state and local procurement purposes and investigate alternative UNSPSC classifications.
