UNSPSC 85713400: Joints hand, open approach-part D

This class includes one or more of 16 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the joints of the hand with open approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0R.

UNSPSC 85713400 Joints hand, open approach-part D is a Class code whose recent state and local activity shows little alignment with orthopedic surgical procedure terminology; the code appears to be a medical device or surgical materials classification that does not match the scope of opportunities posted under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code instead reflect broader occupational health, disability medical evaluation, surgical benefits administration, and clinical staffing services — functions that fall outside the nominal device or supply scope of the UNSPSC designation.

The issuing bodies in the recent record include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), and municipal retirement pension offices (City of Phoenix). Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit applicants (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Given the mismatch between the UNSPSC code name and the actual services being solicited, firms should verify code alignment during opportunity assessment rather than assume this classification signals procurement interest in the hand joint surgical materials or techniques the code nominally describes.
