This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in right ankle joint, open 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 0SWF0JZ

UNSPSC 85723010 Revision of synthetic substitute in right ankle joint, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the scope of work being solicited under it in recent state and local opportunities. The code nominally describes an orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code are for occupational medical surveillance services, independent medical evaluations for disability benefit determinations, temporary health professional staffing, pharmacy benefit management administration, surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs, and emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth—none of which involve revision of synthetic ankle joint implants. State and local procurement offices appear to have applied this code to a broad range of health services and occupational medicine activities that fall outside its orthopedic surgical scope.

The geographic and issuing-body distribution of recent activity shows Arizona (Phoenix Retirement Office), California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County Health System), Washington State (Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department) posting opportunities tagged under this code between July and September 2026. The mix spans city retirement systems, county health systems, state transportation agencies, and county human resources and detention operations. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFQ for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories due October 7, 2026. The code shows substantial recent activity, but the mismatch between the orthopedic surgical procedure it nominally describes and the health services and occupational medicine work actually being solicited signals potential cataloging inconsistency in the source data.
