This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of right finger phalangeal joint with autologous tissue substitute, open approach.

UNSPSC 85713509 Fusion of right finger phalangeal joint with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code whose stated taxonomy reflects a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code do not reflect surgical procedure procurement at all. Instead, the code shows activity in occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, medical evaluation services, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which aligns with the code's nominal scope of finger joint fusion surgery. This mismatch suggests the code carries minimal relevant procurement activity for vendors pursuing surgical procedure services or orthopedic implants under state and local contracts. The opportunities posted are driven by state health systems, county human resources and retirement offices, and county procurement divisions seeking administrative health services and staffing support rather than surgical procedures or device procurement.

Geographic spread includes Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara Health System, Collier County), Washington State (WSDOT Washington State Ferries), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department). Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation issuing an RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations with proposals due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office posting an RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations with proposals due October 16, 2026 and a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; and the County of Santa Clara Health System establishing a qualified vendor pool (RFSQHHSFY270052) for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories with proposals due October 7, 2026. The code shows no recent relevant procurement activity aligned with its stated surgical procedure scope.
