This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to drainage of 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 0R9W4ZZ

UNSPSC 85714519 Drainage of right finger phalangeal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that carries a procedural medical taxonomy designation but shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with that specific surgical procedure. The recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-outs for employee health plans, temporary clinical staffing, and emergency youth detention healthcare — none of which involve finger joint drainage procedures or orthopedic surgery procurement in the manner the code nominally describes. The mismatch between the code's title and the actual work being solicited suggests either misclassification by issuing procurement offices or a data-tagging artifact that does not reflect substantive market activity in this commodity.

The represented issuing bodies include state health agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county procurement offices (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), city retirement systems (City of Phoenix), municipal health systems (City of Long Beach), and county health departments or detention authorities. Activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, and Texas, with no geographic concentration evident. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a $750,000 five-year ceiling and October 16, 2026 response date, the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP with proposals due October 9, 2026, and the Santa Clara County Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. Given the procedural misalignment between code definition and actual procurement content, this code warrants investigation of issuing-office tagging practices before pursuing work under it.
