UNSPSC 85722680: Fusion of left tarsal joint with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of left tarsal joint with autologous tissue substitute, 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 0SGJ47Z

UNSPSC 85722680 Fusion of left tarsal joint with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local opportunities, shows little alignment between its nominal medical procedure classification and the actual work being solicited. The recent opportunities tagged under this code do not involve the specific surgical procedure named in the code; instead, they encompass occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension and disability determinations, Centers of Excellence surgical networks, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. The code appears to have been applied inconsistently or incorrectly to these health service solicitations, which span medical record management, occupational medicine examinations, specialty procedure carve-outs, and clinical staffing rather than orthopedic joint fusion procedures. This suggests either classification error in the source data or a broad institutional interpretation of the code that does not reflect its stated scope.

Activity spans multiple states and issuing bodies: the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers across 14 Washington locations, RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluations for public safety disability determinations, RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach (surgical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees, HR26753, due October 7, 2026), Collier County, Florida (pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 employees, RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026), the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing across multiple clinical categories, RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026), and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, RFI 071626BNM, due September 25, 2026). Given the mismatch between the code's stated procedure and the actual solicitation content, this code should not be treated as a reliable indicator of current procurement activity in orthopedic or tarsal joint surgical services at the state and local level.
