UNSPSC 85714133: Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left metacarpocarpal 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 metacarpocarpal 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 0RWT4KZ

UNSPSC 85714133 Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left metacarpocarpal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not involve tissue substitutes, joint revision, or orthopedic surgical services. Instead, the solicitations tagged to this code cover occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-outs for Centers of Excellence networks, temporary health professional staffing, and inpatient emergency services for detained youth—none of which align with the code's stated procedure. This suggests either a systematic tagging error in the jurisdictions' procurement systems or a mismatch between the code's intended scope and how it is being applied in practice.

The issuing bodies posting opportunities under this code include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and regional health systems. The most decision-relevant recent opportunities are the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 ($750,000 maximum over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance due October 9, 2026, and the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out management due October 7, 2026. Activity is spread across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no clear geographic concentration. Given the apparent mismatch between the code's definition and the actual procurement activity, this code warrants review before allocation of business development resources.
