UNSPSC 85542414 Change other device in spleen, external approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope — a specific clinical procedure involving spleen device replacement — does not align with the state and local opportunities currently tagged under it in procurement systems. The recent solicitations posted under this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve the procedural intervention the code nominates.

The geographic spread of opportunities includes Georgia (Muscogee County), Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), California (San Mateo County), and California again (Santa Monica), but these opportunities represent misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy applied by issuing bodies and the actual scope of work being procured. The Muscogee County Prison RFP (due May 15, 2026) sought comprehensive inmate healthcare services including medical intake, chronic care, and pharmacy management; Collier County (due April 9, 2026) solicited pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 members with historical annual spend around $8.7 million; Monroe County (due April 16, 2026) requested virtual primary care and 24/7 urgent care services for approximately 2,300 county members; and Santa Monica Fire Department (due October 16, 2025) sought a physician medical director for EMS oversight. This pattern suggests that procurement offices may be applying the spleen-procedure code to health services contracts as a cataloging default rather than substantive indicator of procurement type. Vendors should verify the actual scope of work before pursuing opportunities tagged under this code.
