UNSPSC 85724011: Revision of spacer in right ankle joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of spacer in right ankle 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 0SWF48Z

UNSPSC 85724011 Revision of spacer in right ankle joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach, a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it center instead on occupational and disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical carve-out benefits—none of which involve ankle joint surgery or implant revision. The mismatch between the code's procedural specificity and the actual work being solicited suggests either misclassification in the source data or that this code does not meaningfully track state and local procurement in its stated domain.

The opportunities posted across Arizona, California, Washington, and Florida from August through October 2026 reflect broader health plan administration, occupational health compliance, and temporary staffing needs rather than orthopedic implant or surgical services procurement. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) and the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) exemplify the actual work domain—administrative medical review and employee health screening—rather than surgical implants or procedures. Firms evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for state and local procurement strategy purposes and monitor alternative UNSPSC classifications for orthopedic device or surgical service opportunities.
