UNSPSC 85713124: Revision of drainage device in left metacarpophalangeal joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of drainage device in left metacarpophalangeal joint, open 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 0RWV00Z

UNSPSC 85713124 Revision of drainage device in left metacarpophalangeal joint, open approach is a Commodity code with minimal relevance to current state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure on a hand joint, but the recent solicitations tagged under it do not involve orthopedic joint revision work; instead, they span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical care networks, and youth detention medical services.

State and local governments are actively procuring general medical services, benefits administration, and occupational health compliance under this code tag, but none of the recent opportunities align with the code's stated scope of surgical joint procedures. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), state transportation departments (Washington), county health systems (Santa Clara, Harris County, Collier County), and city benefits programs (Long Beach), but the work being solicited—medical record summaries for pension disability determinations, occupational medical examinations for ferry workers, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing—bears no connection to hand joint drainage revision. The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with opportunities posted between July and September 2026. Given the mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the actual procurement activity, this code shows little actionable opportunity for vendors specializing in surgical orthopedic procedures and likely represents a data-quality issue in the state and local procurement tagging rather than a genuine market for the service described.
