UNSPSC 85722738: Destruction of right metatarsal-tarsal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of right metatarsal-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 0S5K4ZZ

UNSPSC 85722738 Destruction of right metatarsal-tarsal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful state and local procurement activity aligned with its medical procedure nomenclature. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension boards, pharmacy benefit management, occupational medical surveillance, surgical procedure carve-outs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which represent orthopedic surgical procedures or joint destruction services. The code appears to have been applied as a catch-all taxonomy label for health-related procurement rather than reflecting actual demand for the specific procedure the code nominates.

The mismatch between the code's clinical scope and the actual solicitations posted under it signals that this Commodity code is not a productive vehicle for business development in state and local markets. Issuers across multiple states and jurisdictions—including Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County)—are using this code to tag diverse healthcare administrative, staffing, and benefits management services rather than surgical procedures. No representative opportunity in the posted list reflects procurement of joint destruction or related orthopedic surgical services. Practitioners should verify the correct UNSPSC code family for surgical procedure services or evaluate whether this code remains actively used for state and local procurement at all.
