UNSPSC 85713911: Insertion of internal fixation device into left metacarpophalangeal joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of internal fixation device into left metacarpophalangeal 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 0RHV34Z

UNSPSC 85713911 (Insertion of internal fixation device into left metacarpophalangeal joint, percutaneous approach) is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The six recent opportunities tagged to this code—independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—do not match the surgical procedure code's nominal scope. The code appears to have been applied inconsistently or incorrectly to health-services-related solicitations that fall outside orthopedic hand surgery or surgical implant procurement.

Given the mismatch between the code's clinical definition and the actual opportunities posted, this code does not present a clear procurement signal for contractors pursuing state and local work in the hand-surgery device or orthopedic implant space. No substantive state and local market activity supporting the code's stated commodity is evident in the recent posting data.
