UNSPSC 85542213, Removal of infusion device from lymphatic, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the six recent opportunities posted under this code span disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve removal of infusion devices from lymphatic systems or represent procurement of the procedural service the code nominally describes. The issuing bodies include a city retirement office (Phoenix), a city human resources department (Long Beach), a state transportation agency (Washington), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County), a county board of commissioners (Collier County), and a county health system (Santa Clara). The geographic spread covers Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida, indicating national activity across state and local sectors.

The mismatch between the code's definition and actual procurement under it signals either classification error in the state and local systems applying the code or that the code is being used as a catch-all in health services procurement. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's multiple-award solicitation for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Given the substantive disconnect between code definition and buying activity, firms should verify code assignment with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities posted under this Commodity code.
