UNSPSC 85713140: Revision of drainage device in left metacarpocarpal joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of drainage device in left metacarpocarpal 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 0RWT00Z

UNSPSC 85713140 Revision of drainage device in left metacarpocarpal joint, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope — orthopedic surgical procedure — bears no meaningful relation to actual state and local procurement activity under this classification. Recent opportunities tagged with this code include independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance services for state ferry workers (Washington State Department of Transportation), specialty and emergency medical services for youth in custody (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management administration (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara Health System). None of these solicitations involve joint drainage devices, orthopedic implants, or surgical revision procedures. The mismatch suggests that this code is either misapplied in the issuing jurisdictions' procurement systems or that the code hierarchy contains a data error upstream.

The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington across state departments, county governments, municipalities, and county health systems. Because the code shows no coherent procurement category grounded in its stated scope, treat this classification as effectively inactive for business development purposes under state and local procurement. Vendors pursuing medical device, orthopedic, or implant-related opportunities should search alternative UNSPSC codes and verify code assignments directly with issuing bodies rather than rely on this classification.
