UNSPSC 85722104: Inspection of right metatarsal-phalangeal joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to inspection of 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 0SJM3ZZ

UNSPSC 85722104 Inspection of right metatarsal-phalangeal joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the six recent state and local opportunities posted between July and September 2026 that reference this code describe independent medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency/specialty medical services for youth in detention—none of which involve inspection of the metatarsal-phalangeal joint. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding within state and local procurement systems or a data-quality issue in the assignment of this procedure code to health services and staffing contracts that do not involve the specific joint examination the code describes.

The opportunities that do post under this code reflect health benefit administration and occupational medical services across diverse issuing bodies: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluation for disability determinations), the City of Long Beach (surgical benefit carve-out), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (occupational medical surveillance), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (specialty medical services for detained youth), Collier County (pharmacy benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary clinical staffing). Without a coherent set of opportunities directly aligned to joint inspection procedures, state and local buying activity under this code cannot be reliably characterized. Firms pursuing this code should validate the actual scope of work with issuing bodies before bid preparation, as the nominal code name does not reflect the kinds of procurements currently being tagged with this Commodity designation.
