UNSPSC 85713227: Reposition left carpal joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left 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 0RSR0ZZ

UNSPSC 85713227 Reposition left carpal joint, open approach is a Commodity code describing a specific surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows no alignment with orthopedic surgery or medical procedures. The five opportunities posted since February 2026 — covering inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — reflect healthcare administration, care delivery platform procurement, and medical workforce staffing rather than carpal joint repositioning or operative orthopedic services. The code appears to have been misapplied to general healthcare procurement opportunities in state and local systems, resulting in a taxonomy mismatch that obscures the actual goods and services being solicited.

Activity is concentrated in Florida and Georgia, with representation from Collier County and Monroe County (Florida), Muscogee County (Georgia), and San Mateo County and the City of Santa Monica (California). The issuing bodies are county boards of commissioners, county health departments, consolidated city governments, and fire departments. Recent solicitations include Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP for inmate medical and pharmacy services (due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management covering approximately $8.7 million in annual spending (due April 9, 2026), Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services (due April 16, 2026), and Santa Monica Fire Department's RFP for a fire department medical director (due October 16, 2025). The mismatch between the code's stated scope and actual procurement activity suggests this code should not be used for business development filtering in healthcare services procurement.
