This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from right metatarsal-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 0SPM4JZ

UNSPSC 85722526, Removal of synthetic substitute from right metatarsal-phalangeal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. The recent solicitations in this code do not involve orthopedic surgical procedures or implant removal; instead, they cover independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefits carve-out programs for municipal employees, and emergency medical care for detained youth. None of these activities match the code's nominal scope of a specific foot-surgery procedure. The issuing bodies span city retirement boards, county human resources departments, state transportation agencies, county juvenile probation departments, and municipal health systems—a mix typical of general health services procurement rather than a specialized surgical commodity line.

The geographic spread includes Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RFP 26001, due October 16, 2026, for $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminal locations (RFP 20260825, due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing across multiple clinical specialties (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code exhibits no recent procurement activity for the orthopedic implant or surgical procedure it names; vendors should verify correct code assignment before pursuing opportunities in this category.
