UNSPSC 85714117: Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left metacarpophalangeal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left metacarpophalangeal joint, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0RWV4KZ

UNSPSC 85714117 Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left metacarpophalangeal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant disconnect between its nominal scope and the work actually being solicited by state and local governments under this classification. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure at a granular anatomical level, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it reflect procurement of occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, surgical benefits carve-out program administration, pharmacy benefit management, specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve the specific joint procedure the code names. The issuing bodies include county governments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Santa Clara County Health System), a city government and its pension boards (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach), and a state transportation authority (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries). This represents a fragmented buyer base across different jurisdictional types and none of the opportunities align with the code's stated procedural scope.

Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, though the code's recent posting pattern suggests either a data-classification anomaly or a poorly mapped taxonomy entry. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) to support disability benefit determinations for public safety personnel, the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) for baseline and periodic health examinations across 14 ferry system locations, the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefits carve-out program administration (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) managing Centers of Excellence networks for orthopedic and other specialty procedures, and Santa Clara County Health System's solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical specialties (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code appears to be a poor fit for actual state and local procurement activity; firms pursuing work under this classification should verify issuing-body intent before investing in proposal development.
