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 0QNM4ZZ

UNSPSC 85705523 Release left tarsal, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not map to meaningful state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities block. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure on the foot, yet the five most recent opportunities posted under this code involve inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical direction—none of which involve orthopedic or podiatric surgery. This mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the state or local procurement systems or a coding artifact that does not reflect actual buying intent under the code.

The few opportunities that touch healthcare delivery span diverse issuing bodies: Columbus Consolidated Government in Georgia (jail medical services), Collier County in Florida (county employee pharmacy management), Monroe County in Florida (virtual primary and urgent care), San Mateo County in California (peer support services), and Santa Monica in California (fire department medical direction). Geographic spread is limited to Florida, Georgia, and California. No recent solicitations actually procure left tarsal surgical services or related orthopedic implants or devices. Firms pursuing work under this code should verify the correct UNSPSC assignment with the issuing body before investing in proposal effort, as the code appears misaligned with current state and local procurement need.
