UNSPSC 85721674: Fusion of right metatarsal-tarsal joint with autologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of right metatarsal-tarsal joint with autologous 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 0SGK07Z

UNSPSC 85721674 "Fusion of right metatarsal-tarsal joint with autologous tissue substitute, open approach" is a Commodity code with minimal relevance to current state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure — a joint fusion using the patient's own tissue — yet recent state and local contract opportunities show no solicitations for this procedure or related surgical services delivered directly under this code.

The recent opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Ferries), independent disability medical evaluations (City of Phoenix), surgical procedure networks through Centers of Excellence (City of Long Beach), specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County Health System), and other medical administration services. None of these solicitations involve the specific metatarsal-tarsal joint fusion procedure named in the code, nor do they represent surgical-procedure procurement at the commodity level. The code shows little relevant recent activity, and the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the opportunities recorded against it suggests either a data classification error or use of the code as a proxy for unrelated medical-services categories.
