UNSPSC 85722130: Insertion of external fixation device into right 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 right 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 0SHK35Z

UNSPSC 85722130 Insertion of external fixation device into right metatarsal-tarsal joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure (external fixation of a joint), yet the six recent opportunities tagged under it span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve orthopedic device insertion or the procedure named in the code. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either misclassification across multiple issuing bodies or that this Commodity code is not actively used by state and local procurement offices for its stated purpose.

Across the unrelated opportunities present in the recent record, issuing bodies include county health systems (Santa Clara), county purchasing offices (Collier County, Harris County), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), city retirement offices (Phoenix), and city human resources departments (Long Beach), posted between July and September 2026 with response dates spanning September through October 2026. Given the absence of solicitations actually seeking orthopedic fixation devices or related surgical procedures under this code, there is no meaningful geographic concentration, vendor activity, or pursue-case basis under the stated Commodity code.
