This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of spacer in left carpal joint, percutaneous 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 0RWR38Z

UNSPSC 85713651 Revision of spacer in left carpal joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The six recent opportunities tagged under this code—spanning independent medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—are fundamentally administrative, population-health, and staffing services unrelated to orthopedic joint procedures or percutaneous surgical revision work. The mismatch between code classification and actual procurement need is material; the opportunities reflect health plan administration, occupational medicine, and clinical staffing, not implant procurement or surgical procedure coding.

State and local buyers posting these opportunities—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 Santa Clara County Health System—are using the code incorrectly to tag service-level contracts rather than medical devices or procedures. No recent RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB in the source targets orthopedic implants, joint spacers, or carpal joint repair services. The code appears dormant or incorrectly applied at the state and local level; pursue activity only after confirming that actual procurement need matches the code's stated scope.
