This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from left toe phalanx, percutaneous endoscopic approach.

UNSPSC 85705502 Removal of synthetic substitute from left toe phalanx, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure on foot anatomy — does not match the medical and health services being solicited under this code in recent postings. State and local governments are instead using this code to tag broad occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty surgical carve-out programs that bear no relationship to the code's stated procedure. The mismatch suggests either a data classification error or a systemic tagging problem that renders the code unreliable as a procurement filter for business development purposes.

Recent opportunities posted under this code span Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida, issued by city retirement offices, county health systems, state transportation departments, and county health authorities. Notable recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services with a $750,000 maximum over five years due October 16, 2026; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations due October 9, 2026; the City of Long Beach's RFP (HR26753) for surgical benefit carve-out programs due October 7, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ (RFSQHHSFY270052) for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. The code itself carries no decision value for market assessment — use state and local health services and benefits administration codes instead.
