UNSPSC 85713004: Repair right metacarpophalangeal joint, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to repair right metacarpophalangeal joint, external 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 0RQUXZZ

UNSPSC 85713004 Repair right metacarpophalangeal joint, external approach (Commodity) shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities posted between July and September 2026 and tagged under this code involve occupational medical surveillance services, disability medical evaluations for pension boards, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employee health plans, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, emergency medical services for detained youth, and specialty medical procedure networks—none of which involve surgical repair of the right metacarpophalangeal joint or orthopedic surgical procedures on that specific anatomical site. The code appears to be a clinical procedure classification that does not align with state and local government contracting patterns; opportunities in this domain are solicited under health services procurement codes, not under a specific surgical-repair commodity.

The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and actual state and local buying signals that this code is not a practical procurement vehicle for bid pursuit. State and local healthcare and benefits procurement occurs at the family or class level (occupational health services, medical staffing, pharmaceutical benefits management, dental or surgical networks) rather than at the level of individual surgical procedures. No direct pursuit strategy is warranted for this code.
