UNSPSC 85713316: Removal of drainage device from right finger phalangeal joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of drainage device from right finger phalangeal 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 0RPW00Z

UNSPSC 85713316 Removal of drainage device from right finger phalangeal joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a highly specific orthopedic surgical procedure performed on a single joint of the hand; recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not align with this clinical scope. Instead, the tagged opportunities reflect broader healthcare administration and occupational medical services — independent medical evaluations for public safety pension systems, surgical benefit program management, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the removal of drainage devices from finger joints.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either misclassification in the source data or that this specific orthopedic procedure is not a regular procurement category in state and local contracting. If your firm provides drainage-device removal services or related hand surgery support, this code does not currently signal procurement opportunity. Monitor activity under broader orthopedic or hand surgery codes, or track opportunities directly from state Medicaid agencies and county health systems that may source such clinical services through different classification paths.
