UNSPSC 85722017: Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left metatarsal-phalangeal joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left 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 0SPN3KZ

UNSPSC 85722017, Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left metatarsal-phalangeal joint, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its clinical descriptor and actual state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities sourced under this code do not reflect orthopedic surgical procedure codes; instead, they span occupational medical surveillance, disability benefit medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing pool qualification, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these solicitations involve the specific joint procedure named in the code, and the mismatch suggests either systematic coding error in the source data or use of this code as a catchall for diverse health and medical services without clinical specificity. The issuing bodies include city and county health authorities (Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), and county commissioners' offices (Collier County Board of County Commissioners).

Activity spans Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County, Collier County), Washington State (14 ferry terminal locations statewide), and Texas (Harris County), with no clear geographic concentration. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, supporting disability benefit determinations for approximately 75 annual applications ($750,000 over five years); the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFQ for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations due October 9, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive, multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories due October 7, 2026. The code shows no relevant recent activity aligned to its stated orthopedic surgical content and warrants reclassification or exclusion from business development targeting in orthopedic or surgical procedure supply or services.
