This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition right tarsal joint with external fixation device, 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 0SSH35Z

UNSPSC 85721923 Reposition right tarsal joint with external fixation device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's technical clinical designation—orthopedic surgical procedure—does not match the actual work being solicited under this code number in state and local markets. Recent opportunities posted under this code are for comprehensive health services procurement, including inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for behavioral health, and fire department medical direction. These are administrative healthcare services and workforce support, not surgical procedures or orthopedic device implantation.

The issuing bodies span county governments and special-purpose health agencies: Muscogee County Prison (Georgia), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), Monroe County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), San Mateo County Health's Behavioral Health and Recovery Services (California), and Santa Monica Fire Department (California). Geographic activity clusters in Florida and California with sporadic county-level solicitations elsewhere. Representative recent opportunities include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP 26-0008 for inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members (closed April 9, 2026), and Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members (due April 16, 2026). The code appears to be a miscategorization artifact; business development professionals should verify code accuracy with the issuing body before pursuing opportunities tagged under this number, as the actual procurement activity bears no substantive relationship to orthopedic surgical procedures or medical devices.
