UNSPSC 85713179 Supplement left metacarpocarpal joint with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—orthopedic joint surgical procedure coding—bears no relation to the state and local contract opportunities recently posted under it. The available solicitations address occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, surgical procedure carve-out networks, pharmacy benefit management, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these activities involve metacarpocarpal joint supplementation or autologous tissue surgery. The code appears to be a data-tagging anomaly rather than an active procurement category; no issuing body is soliciting joint reconstruction supplies or services under this code.

The source does not support representative recent opportunities aligned with the code's stated scope. The mismatch between code taxonomy and actual procurement suggests either a cataloging error in the state or local procurement system or that the code is not actively used for relevant contracting. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for current state and local market purposes and verify category assignments directly with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities tagged with it.
