UNSPSC 85722682: Fusion of left 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 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 0SGJ44Z

UNSPSC 85722682 Fusion of left tarsal joint with internal fixation device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal direct relevance to actual state and local procurement activity. The code's technical specificity—describing a single surgical procedure on a specific anatomical structure—does not align with the broader health services, staffing, and benefits management work being solicited by state and local bodies under this classification. Recent opportunities tagged to this code involve medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out programs—none of which are procedures or surgical interventions themselves. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, county health systems, transit authorities, and county commissioners across multiple states, reflecting general administrative and occupational health procurement rather than orthopedic or surgical procedure delivery.

The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida based on recent postings. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) covering disability benefit determination for public safety pension boards; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code appears to have been applied by procurement offices as a catch-all classification for health services generally, rather than as a precise descriptor of the work being bought. No opportunities in the recent block are for surgical procedures or device placement itself.
