UNSPSC 85722629: Insertion of spacer into right metatarsal-tarsal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of spacer into right metatarsal-tarsal 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 0SHK48Z

UNSPSC 85722629 (Insertion of spacer into right metatarsal-tarsal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach), a Commodity code, shows no meaningful state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical procedure carve-outs, and youth detention healthcare services—none of which involve orthopedic implant insertion or joint procedures. This suggests a cataloging mismatch rather than active buying in the orthopedic device or surgical procedure line this code nominally describes. The code's assignment to general health benefits administration and occupational health services represents either system classification error or extremely sparse activity in the orthopedic implant space at the state and local level.

Recent opportunities are scattered across state departments, county health systems, and municipal retirement boards in Washington, California, Florida, Arizona, and Texas, with no repeat buyers or geographic concentration. The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) is requesting occupational medical surveillance proposals due October 9, 2026 via RFP (RFP20260825); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office is soliciting independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations with proposals due October 16, 2026 (RTMRFP26001); the County of Santa Clara Health System is building a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026; and Collier County is procuring pharmacy benefit management services. None of these solicitations involve the orthopedic procedure, implant, or surgical scheduling this code nominally addresses. State and local procurement under this code appears dormant or misclassified.
