UNSPSC 85722531: Removal of infusion device from right metatarsal-phalangeal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of infusion device 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 0SPM43Z

UNSPSC 85722531, Removal of infusion device from right metatarsal-phalangeal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The most recent opportunities posted against this code—independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—involve medical services administration, benefits management, and clinical staffing at the organizational and system level, not orthopedic surgical procedures or device removal. The code nominally describes a specific surgical intervention but the state and local solicitations reflect procurement of managed healthcare services, occupational health programs, and staffing solutions that fall outside the procedural scope the code name suggests.

No recent state and local procurement activity directly targets the specific orthopedic surgical procedure named in this code. The mismatch between the code's clinical nomenclature and the administrative and staffing services actually being solicited signals that either the code has been misapplied to these opportunities or the code sees minimal relevant purchasing activity in the state and local market.
