This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to reposition left tarsal joint with external fixation device, percutaneous endoscopic approach.

UNSPSC 85722420 Reposition left tarsal joint with external fixation device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that bears no meaningful relationship to the state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code — inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county correctional facility, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical director services — involve healthcare administration, clinical care coordination, and managed services delivery, not orthopedic surgical procedures or device implantation. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical intervention on the foot that state and local governments do not procure as a discrete commodity or service line. State and local procurement offices appear to have applied this code incorrectly to general healthcare contracting activity.

The recent opportunities show healthcare purchasing across multiple issuing bodies and geographies: Columbus Consolidated Government (Georgia) for inmate medical services via RFP, Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) for pharmacy benefit management via RFP with a historical spend of approximately $8.7 million annually, Monroe County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) for virtual primary and urgent care via RFP with an October 1, 2026 effective date, San Mateo County Health Behavioral Health and Recovery Services (California) for peer support services with $580,000 in total funding, and Santa Monica Fire Department (California) for a medical director via RFP. No concrete activity exists under the actual UNSPSC code definition. Firms pursuing state and local healthcare or correctional health contracts should verify the correct code assignment with the issuing body before responding, as this code does not reflect the actual scope of work being solicited.
