UNSPSC 85705241: Reposition left tarsal with internal fixation device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left tarsal with internal 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 0QSM34Z

UNSPSC 85705241 Reposition left tarsal with internal fixation device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes orthopedic surgical procedures, but recent state and local contract opportunities show no alignment with this clinical code. Instead, the opportunities posted under this code concern occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, surgical procedure network management, pharmacy benefit administration, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve tarsal repositioning or orthopedic implant procedures. The issuing bodies span state departments, county governments, and municipal health systems: the Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. This pattern suggests the code has been applied inconsistently or incorrectly to administrative and clinical support services rather than to the surgical procedure its name describes.

Recent activity concentrates in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The most relevant opportunities include the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, response due October 16, 2026, $750,000 five-year term) covering disability medical record summaries and physician coordination for public safety pension applications; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, response due October 9, 2026, two-year term with optional five-year extensions) requiring occupational-medicine-board-certified physicians across 14 ferry system locations; and the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical procedure carve-out network management (HR26753, response due October 7, 2026) serving approximately 3,800 enrolled employees through Centers of Excellence. The code shows no current market for tarsal fixation devices or related orthopedic implants under state and local procurement.
