UNSPSC 85714800: Joints head, open approach-part B

This class includes one or more of 16 standard surgical interventions or procedures on component parts of the joints of the head with open approach. These surgical interventions or procedures are listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 PCS under code 0R.

UNSPSC 85714800 Joints head, open approach-part B is a Class code that shows minimal alignment with the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it. The source opportunities span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for mental health peer workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which relate directly to orthopedic joint procedures or surgical supplies. The code appears to reflect a medical taxonomy mismatch rather than active procurement demand under this specific classification.

The five recent opportunities posted between February and April 2026 originate from diverse issuing bodies — a county consolidated government (Columbus, Georgia), two Florida counties (Collier and Monroe), a California county health department (San Mateo), and a municipal fire department (Santa Monica) — but none address the surgical or medical device scope the code's name suggests. Geographic activity spans Georgia, Florida, and California, but the procurement focus across all opportunities is healthcare administration, employee benefit management, mental health services, and emergency medical oversight. No representative opportunities are available under this code for business development evaluation, as the posted solicitations do not procure products or services within the orthopedic joint device or surgical supply categories that the UNSPSC classification nominally covers.
