UNSPSC 85713175 Supplement right metacarpophalangeal joint with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—orthopedic implant procedures—does not align with the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. The recent opportunities recorded against this code are medical services solicitations: independent medical evaluations for disability benefit determinations, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit carve-outs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare services. None of these solicitations concern orthopedic joint implants or surgical procedures. State and local procurement offices appear to have misaligned this Commodity code with healthcare administration and staffing procurements rather than medical devices or implant services.

The issuing bodies span state health and transportation agencies, counties, and cities—the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office; the City of Long Beach; Collier County Board of County Commissioners; and the County of Santa Clara Health System. Geographic activity includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations (due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The code shows no relevant recent activity aligned to orthopedic implant procurement.
