UNSPSC 85724231: Fusion of left ankle joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of left 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 0SGG4ZZ

UNSPSC 85724231 Fusion of left ankle joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that appears in state and local procurement systems but does not align with the medical and health services actually being solicited under it in recent postings. The recent opportunities tagged to this code include independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, occupational medical surveillance, surgical benefit carve-out programs, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve ankle fusion procedures or orthopedic surgical techniques. This mismatch suggests either a classification error in the source data or a systematic misapplication of the code to broader health services procurement.

The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and human resources divisions (Collier County, Santa Clara County, Harris County), and municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026 with pre-bid August 31, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's multiple-award RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Given the absence of any recent solicitations for ankle fusion procedures or related orthopedic surgical services, the code shows no relevant procurement activity and should not be considered viable for business development under its stated scope.
