UNSPSC 85721334: Revision of synthetic substitute in left metatarsal-tarsal joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in left metatarsal-tarsal 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 0SWL0JZ

UNSPSC 85721334 Revision of synthetic substitute in left metatarsal-tarsal joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes an orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the six most recent opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve metatarsal-tarsal joint revision or implant procurement. The mismatch suggests this code is either misapplied by issuing bodies or inactive as a procurement vehicle in state and local contracting.

No state or local government has posted a solicitation for the specific orthopedic procedure this code describes. The recent opportunities attributed to the code reflect healthcare services procurement, employee benefit plan administration, and occupational health management across Phoenix, Long Beach, Washington State, Harris County, Collier County, and Santa Clara County—geographically dispersed but operationally unrelated to the code's nominal scope. A business development professional pursuing this code should verify whether the underlying market (orthopedic joint revision implants and related surgical services purchased by public health systems, workers' compensation programs, or pension-eligible retiree care networks) actually solicits under this UNSPSC designation or whether it routes to alternative codes or contract vehicles.
