UNSPSC 85705244: Reposition right tarsal with internal fixation device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition right 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 0QSL34Z

UNSPSC 85705244 Reposition right tarsal with internal fixation device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes an orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the six recent opportunities posted under this code instead solicit administrative and management services spanning medical evaluation coordination, pharmacy benefit administration, occupational health surveillance, surgical care networks, specialty staffing placement, and emergency detention health services—none of which involve tarsal repositioning or surgical fixation devices.

State and local issuers using this code include county governments (Santa Clara County Health System, Collier County, Harris County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), special-purpose districts (Washington State Ferries through the Washington State Department of Transportation), and public pension boards. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Recent representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry terminals (due October 9, 2026), the County of Santa Clara Health System RFQ to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026), and the City of Long Beach RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence (due October 7, 2026). The mismatch between the code's procedural definition and the actual work being bought suggests either a systematic classification error in state and local procurement systems or use of this code as a default placeholder for health services procurement broadly. Bidders should not rely on the code's nominal scope when evaluating pursuit strategy; instead, monitor specific solicitations posted under the code and filter by actual service content.
