UNSPSC 85722637: Insertion of spacer into right 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 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 0SHH48Z

UNSPSC 85722637 Insertion of spacer into right tarsal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal health plans, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing qualification pools, and information requests for emergency and specialty medical services for youth in custody. None of these solicitations involve orthopedic implant procedures, tarsal joint surgery, or endoscopic insertion of spacers. The code appears to be a procedural medical billing or clinical taxonomy element that has been incorrectly applied to state and local health-services contracting opportunities, which typically solicit administrative, staffing, and third-party management services rather than specific surgical interventions.

State and local issuers posting under this code include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). The source contains no recent opportunities that solicit procurement of the procedural service named in the code itself, and the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual recent activity suggests the code is not a reliable indicator of relevant state and local contract opportunities in this space.
