This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from right 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 0SPP0JZ

UNSPSC 85721510 Removal of synthetic substitute from right toe phalangeal joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—does not align with the recent solicitations tagged under it. State and local health authorities are not procuring individual surgical procedures as commodities; rather, they are soliciting medical services, staffing, and benefit administration contracts that span multiple treatment modalities and clinical domains.

The six recent opportunities posted between July and September 2026 encompass occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation for ferry workers), disability medical evaluations (City of Phoenix for pension board determinations), surgical benefit carve-outs (City of Long Beach), emergency and specialty care for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara). None of these solicitations target the specific procedure named in the code. The geographic spread spans Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas, with issuing bodies ranging from state departments and counties to cities and health systems. The mismatch between code and scope suggests either a tagging error in the procurement database or dormancy in direct procurement of this specific surgical procedure under this UNSPSC classification. Vendors pursuing state and local health contracts should monitor codes aligned with health services administration, staffing, and benefit management rather than this procedure-specific commodity code.
