UNSPSC 85721632: Insertion of infusion device into right metatarsal-tarsal joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of infusion device into right 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 0SHK03Z

UNSPSC 85721632 Insertion of infusion device into right metatarsal-tarsal joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the six recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code cover independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve insertion of infusion devices into the metatarsal-tarsal joint or related orthopedic instrumentation procurement.

The mismatch between the code's procedure-specific name and the actual scope of recent solicitations suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or an archival classification error in the underlying taxonomy record. State and local procurement offices do not typically solicit surgical procedures as standalone line items; they procure health services contracts, staffing, or benefit administration. Without evidence of genuine opportunities to supply the medical device, instrumentation, or procedural support services this code nominally describes, the code does not present a viable pursuit target for state and local government business development.
