UNSPSC 85713205: Resection of left metacarpocarpal joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to resection of 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 0RTT0ZZ

UNSPSC 85713205 Resection of left metacarpocarpal joint, open approach (Commodity) does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure on a specific anatomical site, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code address occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical network carve-outs for employee benefit plans, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary clinical staffing. None of these solicitations involve metacarpocarpal joint resection or orthopedic surgical procedures.

The source contains no relevant recent opportunities. The code appears to be incorrectly applied by issuing jurisdictions to health services contracting that falls outside the surgical procedure scope the code is intended to capture.
