UNSPSC 85722050: Removal of synthetic substitute from left tarsal joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from left tarsal 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 0SPJ3JZ

UNSPSC 85722050 Removal of synthetic substitute from left tarsal joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code encompass occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical care networks, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve the tarsal joint procedure named in the code. This mismatch indicates either a data classification error or that the code is used inconsistently across procurement systems to tag health services broadly rather than specific procedures.

The recent opportunities show diverse issuing bodies including state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), and cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), with no evident concentration among repeat buyers. Geographic activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services for ferries employees across 14 Washington locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability benefit determinations (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), and the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical care network and Centers of Excellence management for employees enrolled in its Anthem PPO plan (HR26753, due October 7, 2026). Given the absence of tarsal-procedure-specific opportunities under this code, this Commodity code shows little relevant recent activity for procurement professionals targeting orthopedic surgical services.
