This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of infusion device into left tarsal joint, percutaneous approach.

UNSPSC 85722136 (Insertion of infusion device into left tarsal joint, percutaneous approach), a Commodity code, shows minimal alignment between its technical medical procedure designation and the state and local opportunities posted under it. The recent solicitations tagged to this code do not procure surgical device insertion services or orthopedic interventions. Instead, they request independent medical evaluation and disability determination services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing pool qualification, and surgical carve-out benefits administration — none of which involve the placement of infusion devices into tarsal joints. State and local procurement offices appear to have applied this code incorrectly to health services RFPs that do not match the commodity's scope. The mismatch signals either a classification error in the source data or a systematic misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how these jurisdictions are tagging health services acquisitions.

The issuing bodies include a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county government human resources and health authorities (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), city retirement boards and human resources offices (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), and a regional detention authority (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department). Geographic activity spans Washington, California, Texas, Arizona, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation and disability record summary services due October 16, 2026 with a $750,000 five-year contract value; the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits due October 7, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification pool for temporary health professional staffing (multiple ancillary categories) due October 7, 2026. No opportunities match the commodity code's nominal description.
