UNSPSC 85724014: Revision of internal fixation device in right ankle joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of internal fixation device 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 0SWF44Z

UNSPSC 85724014 Revision of internal fixation device in right ankle joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities posted under this code—spanning independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, juvenile detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—do not match the orthopedic surgical device or procedure repair work the code nominally describes. State and local buyers appear to be tagging these healthcare services and staffing solicitations with this code incorrectly, suggesting either data-entry error or misalignment between the agency's procurement taxonomy and UNSPSC nomenclature at this commodity tier.

This code warrants a watch posture for now. The mismatch between the code's intended scope and the opportunities posted under it indicates either that the code is not in active use for its proper purpose within state and local procurement systems, or that the issuing bodies (the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and Santa Clara County Health System) are applying it as a catchall for medical and healthcare services outside orthopedic device and surgical repair. Vendors pursuing orthopedic surgical device repair or revision contracts should monitor higher-tier orthopedic or surgical-supply family codes rather than this commodity level, and may benefit from direct outreach to state and local purchasing offices to understand which codes they are actually using for implants and device-revision services.
