UNSPSC 85721636: Insertion of infusion device into left tarsal joint, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of infusion device into left 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 0SHJ03Z

UNSPSC 85721636 Insertion of infusion device into left tarsal joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code involve occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure networks, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare services—none of which involve the orthopedic surgical procedure named in the code's abstract scope. The mismatch suggests either miscoding of opportunities or that this Commodity code does not drive meaningful state and local purchasing activity. Issuing bodies in the posted opportunities span county health systems, county human resources divisions, transit authorities, and juvenile justice departments, reflecting procurement across health benefits administration and occupational health rather than orthopedic surgery.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in the West and Southwest, with recent solicitations from Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation), Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County). Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026) seeking baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry locations, the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) supporting disability benefit determinations for approximately 75 annual applications, and the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award qualification pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The code does not reflect a coherent procurement category aligned with its stated definition and should be considered inactive for orthopedic surgical-device or surgical-procedure contracting.
