UNSPSC 85722504: Removal of autologous tissue substitute from left toe phalangeal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of autologous tissue substitute from left toe phalangeal joint, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0SPQ47Z

UNSPSC 85722504 Removal of autologous tissue substitute from left toe phalangeal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure on a single anatomical site using a defined approach—does not align with the state and local opportunities posted under it. Recent solicitations tagged to this code instead cover occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, temporary health professional staffing, specialty surgical center-of-excellence carve-outs, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these procurements involve the removal of autologous tissue substitutes or address the specific procedural code's clinical content. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in state and local procurement systems or use of this code as a catchall for broad healthcare service categories unrelated to its explicit definition.

The six recent opportunities identified span five issuing bodies across four states: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), City of Long Beach (California), Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (Washington), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and County of Santa Clara Health System (California). The opportunities include an RFP for independent medical evaluation services (Phoenix, due October 16, 2026), an RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits (Long Beach, due October 7, 2026), an RFP for occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Ferries, due October 9, 2026), an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services (Harris County, due September 25, 2026), an RFP for pharmacy benefit management (Collier County, due April 9, 2026), and a qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County, due October 7, 2026). Geographic activity centers on California (two opportunities), with single opportunities in Arizona, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Given the absence of alignment between the code's nominal scope and the posted solicitations, this code does not present a reliable indicator of actual state and local buying patterns in orthopedic surgical services.
