UNSPSC 85713413: Insertion of spacer into right finger phalangeal joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of spacer into 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 0RHW08Z

UNSPSC 85713413 Insertion of spacer into right finger phalangeal joint, open approach is a Commodity code that bears no meaningful relation to the state and local contracting activity currently posted under it. Recent solicitations tagged to this code involve independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, surgical care networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which involve orthopedic surgical devices or finger joint procedures. The mismatch appears systematic: the code's nominal scope is a specific surgical implant procedure, yet state and local procurement offices are using it to classify administrative and clinical staffing, benefits management, and healthcare coordination services that fall outside orthopedic device supply entirely.

The source contains no recent opportunities that actually procure insertion of spacers into finger phalangeal joints or related orthopedic surgical implants. Issuing bodies in the recent-opportunities block include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System — spanning state transportation, local government, county health administration, and public safety. Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Given the taxonomy mismatch, this code shows little actionable signal for vendors supplying or performing orthopedic surgical procedures or devices at the state and local level.
