UNSPSC 85721426: Reposition right metatarsal-tarsal joint with internal fixation device, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition right metatarsal-tarsal joint with internal fixation device, 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 0SSK04Z

UNSPSC 85721426, Reposition right metatarsal-tarsal joint with internal fixation device, open approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The six recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code are medical services procurements spanning occupational health surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, surgical benefit networks, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare — none of which directly address orthopedic surgical procedures or joint repositioning with internal fixation. The mismatch between the code's clinical description and the procurement activity suggests this Commodity code is either misapplied to these opportunities or sees minimal actual solicitation in state and local markets for the specific procedure it names.

The recent opportunities instead reveal a fragmented mix of health system buyers — county health systems, municipal retirement boards, state transportation departments, county juvenile probation departments, and county commissioners — pursuing administrative health services, benefit program management, and personnel staffing rather than surgical supplies or implantable devices. The geographic spread spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington (WSDOT), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County), with no concentration in any single state or region. No evidence supports active state or local procurement interest in the specific orthopedic procedure named by the code.
