UNSPSC 85705255: Replacement of right tarsal with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right tarsal with synthetic substitute, 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 0QRL3JZ

UNSPSC 85705255 Replacement of right tarsal with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this designation. The recent opportunities posted against this code involve independent medical evaluations, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-outs for employee benefit programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which relate to orthopedic prosthetic procedures. The code appears to have been applied incorrectly to health services and benefits administration RFPs, suggesting either a data-entry misalignment in the underlying procurement system or systematic tagging drift that obscures the actual commodity or service being bought.

The geographic spread of recent activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with posting dates concentrated in August and September 2026. The issuing bodies include city retirement systems (Phoenix), county health systems and procurement offices (Collier County, Santa Clara County), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, and the Washington State Department of Transportation. No recent solicitation substantively matches the code's nominal scope of tarsal joint replacement; accordingly, this code shows little relevant recent activity for suppliers of orthopedic prosthetics or related implantable devices targeting state and local procurement channels.
