UNSPSC 85713900: Joints hand, percutaneous 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 percutaneous 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 85713900 Joints hand, percutaneous approach-part D is a Class code that shows no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The six most-recent opportunities tagged to this code across state and local jurisdictions — spanning Phoenix retirement medical evaluations, Long Beach health plan surgery benefits, Washington State Ferries occupational surveillance, Harris County juvenile detention medical services, Collier County pharmacy benefit management, and Santa Clara temporary health professional staffing — involve employee health benefits administration, occupational medicine, disability determinations, emergency medical care, pharmacy management, and temporary clinical staffing, none of which map to orthopedic hand joint procedures or their components. The code appears to have been applied as a catch-all taxonomy marker for health and medical services rather than as a specific commodity classification for hand surgery devices, instrumentation, or procedure-related goods and services.

State and local procurement under this code does not warrant pursuit at this time. The issuing bodies are dispersed across Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County), and their recent solicitations reflect administrative health services, staffing, and benefits management — not the surgical supplies, prosthetics, or procedural materials that would logically fall under a hand joint procedure classification. If your firm provides orthopedic hand devices or related services, monitor this code for categorization drift or retagging, but do not allocate business development resources to these current opportunities.
