UNSPSC 85713171 Supplement left metacarpophalangeal joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure. Recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal relevance to the code's nominal scope. The opportunities posted against this code involve occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty surgical networks for employee health plans, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which align with procurement of surgical joint replacement devices or implants. State and local governments do not appear to be soliciting orthopedic joint supplement procedures themselves; the code has been applied to administrative health services, staffing, and benefit-management solicitations that do not involve the purchase or implantation of the medical device or procedure the code describes.

Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington based on recent opportunities, with issuing bodies including city retirement offices, county health systems, city employee benefits divisions, state departments of transportation, and county juvenile justice agencies. No recent opportunities directly procure the surgical procedure or implant materials specified by the code. The code shows little actionable activity for vendors focused on orthopedic joint replacement devices or surgical implant services.
