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 0SBH0ZZ

UNSPSC 85721716 Excision of right tarsal joint, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the most recent opportunities posted under it reflect healthcare management, pharmacy benefit administration, virtual care services, peer support programs, and medical direction—none of which involve orthopedic surgery or tarsal joint excision. The mismatch suggests either a data-coding error in how opportunities were tagged to this code or that the code's application in state and local procurement systems does not correspond to its clinical definition.

The five recent opportunities span Florida (Collier County, Monroe County), Georgia (Columbus Consolidated Government / Muscogee County Prison), California (San Mateo County, Santa Monica), and reflect issuing bodies including county commissions, county health departments, and municipal fire departments—a mix typical of broad healthcare contracting. Representative recent solicitations include Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP 26-0008 (Inmate Medical & Pharmacy Services for Muscogee County Prison, due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP 25-8414 (Pharmacy Benefit Management Services, due April 9, 2026), Monroe County's RFP 628 (Virtual Primary & Urgent Care Services, due April 16, 2026), and Santa Monica Fire Department's RFP 455 (Fire Department Medical Director, due October 16, 2025). The code shows no orthopedic-specific procurement activity and appears unsuitable for targeting business in surgical services or hospital-based orthopedic programs.
