UNSPSC 85721826: Revision of synthetic substitute in right metatarsal-phalangeal joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in right metatarsal-phalangeal joint, percutaneous 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 0SWM3JZ

UNSPSC 85721826, Revision of synthetic substitute in right metatarsal-phalangeal joint, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevance to actual state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not involve orthopedic joint surgery or prosthetic revision services; instead, they span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefit programs for employee health plans, temporary health professional staffing, specialty medical services for detained youth, and related health administration and benefit management work. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—does not align with the administrative, staffing, and benefits-management services that state and local buyers are actually procuring under this classification.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara Health System), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department). The issuing bodies are primarily municipal health systems, county human resources and benefits divisions, state transportation departments, and county probation authorities. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMFP26001, proposals due October 16, 2026) and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry system employees across 14 Washington locations (RFP20260825, proposals due October 9, 2026). The code's assignment to these opportunities appears to be a classification mismatch rather than a reflection of active procurement demand for the surgical procedure the code nominally describes.
