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 0RGP3ZZ

UNSPSC 85712501 Fusion of left wrist joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code carrying a procedural medical nomenclature that bears no relationship to the work state and local governments are actually procuring under this tag. Recent opportunities posted against this code show no procurement of surgical fusion procedures, implants, or orthopedic supplies. Instead, state and local bodies are soliciting health plan administration, occupational medical surveillance, emergency medical services for detainees, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which align with the code's stated scope. The code shows no activity that reflects its clinical definition and appears to have been misapplied to health services and benefits administration solicitations.

The recent opportunities logged under this code span Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with issuing bodies including city retirement offices, municipal health benefits departments, county health systems, county probation departments, and state transportation agencies. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a response date of October 16, 2026 and a five-year contract ceiling of $750,000; the City of Long Beach posted an RFP for surgical carve-out benefit programs with a response date of October 7, 2026 and contract execution targeted for April 2027; the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFP for occupational medical surveillance services with a response date of October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System posted an RFQ for temporary health professional staffing with a response date of October 7, 2026. No procurement activity under this code reflects the procedural-code taxonomy it nominally represents.
