UNSPSC 85722638: Insertion of external fixation device into right tarsal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of external fixation device 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 0SHH45Z

UNSPSC 85722638 Insertion of external fixation device into right tarsal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity under this code. The six state and local opportunities posted between July and September 2026 and tagged with this code concern independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, surgical carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which align with orthopedic surgical device procurement or implantable medical device insertion procedures. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (a specific surgical procedure involving external fixation of the tarsal joint) and the actual solicitations suggests either miscoding in the source records or that this code does not reflect genuine state and local procurement activity for orthopedic devices and surgical services at present.

The issuing bodies in the recent sample span diverse jurisdictions: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System. Geographic activity appears dispersed across California, Washington, Arizona, Texas, and Florida, with no concentration in any single state. Because the posted solicitations do not represent legitimate procurement under the code's taxonomy definition, this code presents no actionable opportunity for business development professionals pursuing external fixation devices or related orthopedic surgical services at the state and local level.
