UNSPSC 85713310 Removal of synthetic substitute from right finger phalangeal joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity for state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under it do not align with that scope. Instead, the solicitations captured under this code involve occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which concern the removal of synthetic joint substitutes from finger bones. The mismatch suggests either a data-classification error in the source or a broad miscoding of health services activity that does not reflect the code's intended commodity definition.

State and local issuing bodies posting under this code in recent months include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), a county government (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and a city pension office (City of Phoenix). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 locations (due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026). No procurement opportunities under this code address orthopedic joint replacement procedures or hand surgery.
