UNSPSC 85713951: Fusion of right metacarpophalangeal joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of right 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 0RGU3ZZ

UNSPSC 85713951 Fusion of right metacarpophalangeal joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevance to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged under it do not align with orthopaedic hand surgery procurement; instead, they reflect broader health service management and staffing solicitations unrelated to the code's stated scope.

The source records no state and local opportunities soliciting fusion procedures, implants, surgical instruments, or other goods or services directly related to metacarpophalangeal joint fusion. The six recent opportunities posted between July and September 2026 span occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Ferries), disability medical evaluation services (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), surgical benefit carve-outs for Centers of Excellence (City of Long Beach), emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and temporary ancillary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara Health System). None of these activities—medical record review, occupational health examinations, benefit plan administration, detention healthcare, pharmacy services, or temporary clinical staffing—correspond to orthopaedic surgical procedures or related procurement. The code appears to have been assigned incorrectly to these opportunities or represents a data classification error. Firms pursuing state and local health-related contracts should verify the actual scope of work in each RFP, RFQ, or solicitation notice rather than relying on UNSPSC code alignment in this category.
