This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to fusion of left ankle joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0SGG4KZ

UNSPSC 85724232, Fusion of left ankle joint with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—does not align with actual state and local contract activity under this code. Recent solicitations tagged to this code address occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, independent disability medical evaluations, and surgical benefit carve-outs for public employee health plans. None of these opportunities involve ankle fusion surgery or procurement of related implants, equipment, or surgical services. The mismatch suggests either misclassification of opportunities by issuing offices or use of the code to catalog health services more broadly without precision alignment to the procedure-specific commodity definition.

The recent opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies including county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county governments (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), cities (City of Long Beach), and state transportation authorities (Washington State Department of Transportation). Geographic representation spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington ferry terminals (due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations (due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), and Santa Clara County Health System's RFSQHHSFY270052 establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). This code currently shows little decision-relevant recent activity aligned to its stated commodity scope.
