UNSPSC 85721377: Supplement left metatarsal-tarsal joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left metatarsal-tarsal joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0SUL0KZ

UNSPSC 85721377 Supplement left metatarsal-tarsal joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code. The recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show no alignment with the code's nominal orthopedic surgical procedure scope. Instead, the code has been applied to five unrelated solicitations: independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, a surgical benefit carve-out program for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. These are administrative health services, benefits management, and staffing arrangements—not surgical procedures on the metatarsal-tarsal joint. The code's tag appears to be a tagging error across multiple jurisdictions rather than a genuine procurement category for orthopedic implants or related supplies.

The issuing bodies include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County (Florida), and County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Texas, Washington, and Florida. No recent opportunities reflect actual procurement of metatarsal-tarsal joint supplements or related orthopedic devices. The code shows little relevant recent activity and the opportunities listed present a systematic mismatch between the Commodity code's scope and what state and local governments are actually soliciting under it.
