This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right finger phalangeal 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 0RCW4ZZ

UNSPSC 85714502 Extirpation of matter from right finger phalangeal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with state and local procurement activity in the source material. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure on finger joints; however, recent state and local opportunities posted under this code procure occupational medical surveillance services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluation services, and surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs for employee and retiree populations — none of which involves finger joint surgery or orthopedic procedures on digits. The code appears to have been applied to health benefit administration and general occupational medicine functions rather than to the procedure its taxonomy name specifies.

Recent opportunities span multiple issuing bodies across different jurisdictions without concentration in any single sector or state. The Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, proposals due October 9, 2026), the City of Long Beach (surgical procedure carve-out benefit design, proposals due October 7, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations, proposals due October 16, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management, proposals due April 9, 2026), the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary categories, proposals due October 7, 2026), and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, responses due September 25, 2026) represent activity in Washington, California, Arizona, and Texas. The code shows no coherent recent procurement pattern tied to its stated commodity definition, making pursuit inadvisable without clarification of the actual service category intended.
