UNSPSC 85714338: Removal of internal fixation device from left metacarpocarpal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of internal fixation device from 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 0RPT44Z

UNSPSC 85714338 Removal of internal fixation device from left metacarpocarpal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under it reflect healthcare administration and benefit management services unrelated to surgical intervention — medical record summarization for disability retirement determinations, Centers of Excellence network management for surgical benefits, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. State and local governments are not buying this specific procedure code through public procurement; the tagging appears to reflect a data classification mismatch rather than actual purchasing behavior.

No representative procurement opportunities exist for the work described in the UNSPSC code itself. The recent solicitations — from the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System — all pursue administrative healthcare services, network management, and staffing, not the orthopedic surgical procedure named in the code. This code shows little relevant recent activity for business development purposes.
