UNSPSC 85713439 Insertion of internal fixation device into right carpal joint, open approach is a Commodity code for which state and local procurement activity shows no relevant recent opportunities. The six posted opportunities identified in recent state and local procurement records—independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefits carve-out programs for municipal health plans, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—are healthcare administration, benefits procurement, and staffing services that do not align with orthopedic surgical devices or surgical procedures themselves. The UNSPSC code's nominal scope addresses a specific surgical implant and procedure, yet state and local procurement offices rarely solicit or purchase individual surgical devices or surgical interventions directly through RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB processes in the way this code describes.

State and local governments procure medical services, health insurance administration, staffing, and benefits management extensively, but do not typically issue competitive solicitations for specific surgical procedures or implants on behalf of individual patients. When medical devices and procedures are sourced, purchasing typically flows through hospital group purchasing organizations, integrated health systems, or physicians' supply chains rather than through state procurement offices posting formal notices. This code shows no decision signal for business development in state and local procurement.
