UNSPSC 85713162: Revision of internal fixation device in right carpal joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of internal fixation device in right carpal 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 0RWQ04Z

UNSPSC 85713162 Revision of internal fixation device in right carpal joint, open approach, is a Commodity code under which state and local governments are not currently soliciting purchases. The code's narrow clinical specificity—a surgical procedure code describing revision of carpal joint hardware via open surgical approach—does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this classification. The six opportunities in the recent-activity block represent medical and health services procurement across occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluation, pharmacy benefit management, surgical care networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency services for detained youth; none involve procurement or supply of orthopedic fixation devices, revision surgery, or related implantable hardware.

This mismatch between code taxonomy and actual procurement activity signals either miscoding by the issuing jurisdictions or a significant gap between the code's intended scope and current state and local buying patterns. No representative solicitation can be identified. Procurement professionals should verify whether carpal joint device-revision work falls outside state and local contracting scope entirely, whether it is tagged under different UNSPSC codes in practice, or whether opportunities in this domain are posted infrequently enough that the recent-activity window contains no relevant records.
