UNSPSC 85721306: Revision of internal fixation device in left toe phalangeal joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of internal fixation device in left toe phalangeal joint, open 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 0SWQ04Z

UNSPSC 85721306 Revision of internal fixation device in left toe phalangeal joint, open approach (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity under this code. The six recent state and local opportunities tagged with this code include independent medical evaluations for public safety pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, specialty healthcare services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve orthopedic device revision, joint surgery, or the procurement of medical devices or surgical supplies the code describes. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests this code is either rarely used by state and local buyers or has been misapplied across these particular opportunities.

The issuing bodies in the recent posting set span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara), and cities (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), with no repeat buyers tagged under this code. Geographic activity is spread across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no concentration evident. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026). Given the absence of genuine procurement activity aligned with orthopedic device revision or similar surgical supplies under this code, pursuing business development here would require either clarifying why the code has been applied to non-device-related medical services or investigating whether the classification is a data error on the issuing side.
