This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in right ankle joint, external 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 0SWFXJZ

UNSPSC 85722810 Revision of synthetic substitute in right ankle joint, external approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its clinical scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability benefits evaluation, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out networks, health professional staffing, and juvenile detention medical services — none of which involve orthopedic revision procedures or prosthetic joint replacement. The mismatch between the code's orthopedic-procedure nomenclature and the health-services and benefits-administration work actually being solicited suggests either systematic misclassification in state and local procurement databases or that this code does not map reliably to current buying patterns in the jurisdictions reviewed.

The opportunities present do reflect typical state and local health-services procurement patterns across multiple issuing bodies. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office is procuring disability medical record review and independent medical evaluations; the City of Long Beach is seeking surgical carve-out network administration; the Washington State Department of Transportation is requesting occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers across 14 regional sites with proposals due October 9, 2026; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth; Collier County is soliciting pharmacy benefit management services with historical annual spend of $8.7 million; and Santa Clara County Health System is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple clinical specialties. Without evidence that state and local governments are actively procuring revision procedures for synthetic ankle joints under this code, pursuit should be deferred pending clarification of how this code appears in actual RFP and contract award records at target jurisdictions.
