UNSPSC 85722126: Insertion of external fixation device into left metatarsal-tarsal joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of external fixation device into left metatarsal-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 0SHL35Z

UNSPSC 85722126 Insertion of external fixation device into left metatarsal-tarsal joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope — a specific orthopedic surgical procedure — does not align with the state and local contract opportunities currently tagged under it. Recent solicitations in the dataset include disability medical record summary and independent medical evaluation services (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), surgical benefit carve-out programs for government employee health plans (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County Health System). None of these opportunities involve the insertion of external fixation devices or foot-specific orthopedic surgery; they instead address medical administration, occupational health compliance, benefit plan management, and clinical staffing.

The mismatch suggests either a taxonomy classification error in the source data or that this Commodity code is not currently active in state and local procurement. The opportunities presented span Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas across city and county health systems, county human resources divisions, state transportation departments, and county probation agencies — a broad issuing-body mix — but none match the clinical procedure named in the code. Vendors pursuing state and local government medical procurement should monitor this code's future activity, but current sourcing signals do not support near-term opportunity development under it.
