UNSPSC 85621272 Destruction of glomus jugulare, percutaneous approach (Commodity) shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—and the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under this code designation. Recent opportunities tagged to this code do not involve glomus jugulare procedures; instead, they encompass occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, specialty surgical benefit carve-outs for employee health plans, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. The issuing bodies span a diverse mix including state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), and municipalities (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), reflecting procurement across HR-administered benefits, pension administration, corrections, and operational occupational health functions. The scope of work does not align with surgical intervention but rather with medical administration, benefits management, and clinical staffing support.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in the Southwest and Pacific regions, with recent opportunities from Arizona (Phoenix), Florida (Collier County), California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), Texas (Harris County), and Washington State. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) requiring occupational-medicine-board-certified physicians to conduct baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry locations; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) seeking disability record summarization and examination scheduling for approximately 75 annual pension applications at $750,000 over five years; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) covering ancillary clinical categories including audiology, radiology, respiratory care, and surgical services. The code's current tag assignments do not reflect genuine procurement activity in the procedure named.
