UNSPSC 85511455 Extirpation of matter from right colic artery, open approach (Commodity) shows a significant mismatch between its nominal medical-procedure title and the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this code. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not involve surgical extirpation procedures; instead, they cover occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out network management for health plans, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. The code appears to be a data-classification artifact rather than a meaningful signal of procurement activity. State and local issuers using this code include city retirement offices, county health systems and procurement divisions, state transportation departments, county juvenile probation departments, and county boards of commissioners across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. No recent opportunities align with the code's procedural scope.

The source provides no evidence that state and local governments are actively procuring surgical extirpation services or related medical procedures under this code. The tagged opportunities instead document administrative health-benefit management, occupational health compliance, staffing, and youth detention medical care—activities unrelated to the code's nominal definition. Geographic activity appears distributed across Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Florida (Collier County), Washington (state ferries), and Texas (Harris County), but this spread reflects the broader health-service opportunities rather than code-specific purchasing patterns. The mismatch between the code title and actual procurement suggests either a systematic classification error in the source data or that this code is not in active use for state and local health-service contracting.
