UNSPSC 85722686: Fusion of right 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 right 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 0SGH47Z

UNSPSC 85722686 Fusion of right tarsal joint with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach, a Commodity code, does not reflect the medical services state and local governments are actually buying under this designation. The recent opportunities tagged to this code involve occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out networks, and youth detention healthcare—none of which align with the orthopedic surgical procedure named in the code. This mismatch suggests the code has been misapplied to administrative and clinical support services rather than the specific surgical intervention the code nominally describes. The issuing bodies include state departments of transportation, county human resources and health systems, municipalities, and county juvenile justice agencies, indicating cross-sector demand for healthcare administration and workforce staffing rather than a defined surgical commodity.

Geographic representation includes Washington State (Department of Transportation), California (cities of Long Beach and county health systems), Arizona (city retirement offices), Texas (county juvenile probation), and Florida (county boards), reflecting scattered national activity. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services with proposals due October 9, 2026 (requiring occupational medicine board certification and coverage across 14 statewide ferry locations); the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations due October 16, 2026 with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification-based solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across thirteen ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated scope.
