UNSPSC 85722211: Excision of left metatarsal-phalangeal joint, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to excision of left 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 0SBN3ZZ

UNSPSC 85722211 Excision of left metatarsal-phalangeal joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code involve disability medical evaluations, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out networks, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which are surgical excision services. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office sought independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations; the Washington State Department of Transportation's ferries division requested occupational medical surveillance for shipyard and vessel crew personnel; the City of Long Beach pursued a surgical procedure carve-out program through Centers of Excellence rather than direct surgical procurement; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth; and the County of Santa Clara Health System established a vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories. These opportunities span medical administration, occupational health, benefits management, and staffing coordination—domains distinct from procedural surgery itself.

State and local bodies issuing under this code include city retirement offices, state transportation departments, county health systems, county juvenile justice agencies, and county boards of commissioners. Recent activity appears concentrated in Arizona, Washington State, California, and Texas, though the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either miscoding by issuing offices or that the code is not actively used for purchasing aligned to its procedural definition. No recent opportunities reflect procurement of surgical excision services or related surgical supplies or equipment.
