UNSPSC 85713049: Inspection of left finger phalangeal joint, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to inspection of left finger phalangeal 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 0RJXXZZ

UNSPSC 85713049 Inspection of left finger phalangeal joint, external approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevance to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a single orthopedic diagnostic procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code encompass occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, disability benefit medical evaluations, surgical care networks, youth detention healthcare, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the code's specific clinical scope. The mismatch suggests either tagging error in the source data or the code's use as a catchall for health services procurement that falls outside narrower medical taxonomy categories.

The issuing bodies posting under this code span county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), municipal pension boards (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), a state transportation agency (Washington State Department of Transportation), and a city employee benefits office (City of Long Beach), indicating fragmented demand across public safety, health systems, and employee benefits functions rather than concentrated procurement of the named orthopedic procedure. Recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026 with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the City of Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out RFP due October 7, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing vendor-pool qualification submission due October 7, 2026. Geographic activity appears in Washington, Arizona, California, and Florida, though the code's mismatch with actual work being procured makes the code itself an unreliable signal for business development targeting.
