This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of internal fixation device in right metatarsal-tarsal joint, external 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 0SWKX4Z

UNSPSC 85721146 Revision of internal fixation device in right metatarsal-tarsal joint, external approach is a Commodity code with minimal alignment to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes orthopedic surgical implant revision procedures, but the recent solicitations posted under this code do not involve orthopedic devices or surgical implants; instead, they span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, health plan surgical carve-outs, emergency medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing across multiple clinical disciplines. The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the actual scope of recent solicitations suggests either systematic misclassification in the source data or that this code does not reflect active state and local procurement for its intended commodity.

No recent opportunities directly matching the code's stated scope—revision of metatarsal-tarsal joint fixation devices—appear in the available block. The six solicitations posted between July and September 2026 span the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluations, RFP due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit carve-out program, RFP due October 7, 2026); Washington State Department of Transportation's Ferries division (occupational medical surveillance, RFP due October 9, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services, RFI due September 25, 2026); Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management, RFP due April 9, 2026); and Santa Clara County Health System (temporary health professional staffing, RFQ due October 7, 2026). Activity is spread across California, Florida, Arizona, Washington, and Texas. This code warrants close monitoring for actual procurement of orthopedic devices or surgical implant revision services, as current activity does not support pursuit under the stated commodity definition.
