This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right 1st toe with synthetic substitute, 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 0YUP0JZ

UNSPSC 85781629 Supplement right 1st toe with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local procurement activity currently being solicited under this classification. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—implantation of a synthetic prosthetic substitute for the right first toe using an open surgical approach—yet the recent solicitations tagged under this code concern healthcare services procurement by county governments and special districts, including jail medical services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary care platforms, peer support services, and fire department medical direction. None of these opportunities involve procurement of orthopedic implants, prosthetic devices, or related surgical supplies. The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the broad healthcare-services scope of the tagged solicitations suggests either a cataloging error in the state and local procurement system or a deliberate but non-standard use of this code to flag healthcare-related contracting activity more broadly.

The recent activity shows issuing bodies concentrated in Florida (Collier County and Monroe County) and Georgia (Columbus Consolidated Government representing Muscogee County Prison), with additional activity from California counties (San Mateo County and Santa Monica Fire Department in Los Angeles County). Representative solicitations include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP 26-0008 for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services at Muscogee County Prison (due May 15, 2026), Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members (due April 9, 2026), Monroe County's RFP 628 for virtual primary and urgent care services for 2,300 county members (due April 16, 2026), and the Santa Monica Fire Department's RFP 455 for an EMS medical director (due October 16, 2025). This code shows little relevant recent activity for prosthetic device procurement and should not be relied upon for targeting orthopedic implant or surgical supply opportunities.
