UNSPSC 85722670: Fusion of left metatarsal-tarsal joint with internal fixation device, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of left metatarsal-tarsal joint with internal fixation device, 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 0SGL44Z

UNSPSC 85722670 Fusion of left metatarsal-tarsal joint with internal fixation device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities presented. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the six most recent state and local solicitations under this code instead solicit independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the procedure named in the code. The mismatch signals that the UNSPSC taxonomy assignment for these opportunities diverges substantially from the code's clinical definition.

The issuing bodies span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments and public health systems (Harris County, Santa Clara County, Collier County), and municipal entities (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), reflecting fragmented procurement authority across health, occupational safety, employee benefits, and detention health functions. The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no single state or jurisdiction appearing as a repeat buyer across multiple listed opportunities. The recent opportunities show no consistent pattern of purchasing the procedure described by the code itself, rendering this code an unreliable indicator of actual procurement intent or workload in state and local markets.
