UNSPSC 85722175: Fusion of right metatarsal-tarsal joint with external fixation device, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of right metatarsal-tarsal joint with external fixation device, 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 0SGK35Z

UNSPSC 85722175 Fusion of right metatarsal-tarsal joint with external fixation device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal scope. The six recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code reflect a categorical mismatch: they solicit medical services administration, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and youth detention healthcare — none of which involve orthopedic surgical procedures or device-based fixation work. The code's abstract name describes a specific surgical intervention, but the opportunities actually posted under it span occupational medicine, disability evaluation, specialty surgery networks, and health benefit administration.

The issuing bodies soliciting under this code include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and a city retirement office (City of Phoenix). No standout repeat buyer emerges from the recent block. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) supporting disability determinations for public safety personnel; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) covering ferry system employees across 14 locations; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) establishing a qualified vendor pool across ancillary clinical categories. The categorical mismatch between the code's surgical-procedure name and the healthcare-administration and staffing work actually being solicited suggests either miscoding in source records or a structural disconnect between the UNSPSC hierarchy and current procurement activity.
