UNSPSC 85712366: Reposition left wrist joint with external fixation device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left wrist joint with external 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 0RSP35Z

UNSPSC 85712366 Reposition left wrist joint with external fixation device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated scope. The six most recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code involve independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out networks, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which concern orthopedic surgical procedures or wrist joint repositioning. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical intervention, but the actual procurement activity does not reflect procurement of that service line or related medical devices.

The geographic and issuing-body spread across these opportunities includes the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation (Washington), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). The mismatch between the Commodity code's orthopedic surgical scope and the health-benefits-administration and clinical-staffing work actually being solicited suggests either a data-entry error in the source or a systematic miscoding of healthcare-related procurements under this UNSPSC category. Firms pursuing state and local opportunities in this code should verify the actual scope of work before pursuing; the code as presently tagged does not reflect active procurement demand for the service it nominally describes.
