This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to destruction of left 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 0S5J4ZZ

UNSPSC 85722739 Destruction of left tarsal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code whose nominal title reflects a specific surgical procedure, yet recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code does not align with orthopedic surgery procurement. Instead, the opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, health plan pharmacy and surgical benefit administration, temporary clinical staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve tarsal joint procedures or orthopedic surgical procurement. The mismatch between the code's clinical descriptor and the work actually being solicited suggests this code is not a reliable indicator of state and local procurement demand for the surgical service it nominally names. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, county human resources and procurement divisions, state transportation departments, county health systems, and county juvenile justice authorities — a diverse mix of administrative and operational health-care buyers spanning multiple service lines that fall outside orthopedic surgery.

The recent opportunities cluster in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington State. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications under a five-year $750,000 contract); the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminal locations (due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026); the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence (due October 7, 2026, for approximately 3,800 covered members); and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (due April 9, 2026, supporting approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual pharmacy spending of $8.7 million). This code shows no recent relevant activity for state and local procurement of tarsal joint destruction procedures and should not be relied upon for orthopedic surgery market signals.
