UNSPSC 85622565 Excision of right superior parathyroid gland, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code describing a specific surgical procedure; however, the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code do not align with the nominal procedure scope. The opportunities instead reflect medical evaluation, staffing, and benefit management services—including independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, occupational medical surveillance, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs, pharmacy benefit management, and emergency/specialty care for detained youth. The issuing bodies span county health systems (Santa Clara County, Harris County), municipal retirement boards and employee benefits offices (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), and county procurement offices (Collier County). This mismatch between the code's clinical procedure definition and the actual goods and services being procured suggests the code is not reliably in use for state and local medical services contracting, or that the tagging is erroneous.

The recent activity spans Arizona (Phoenix Fire and Police Pension Boards), California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County, Collier County), Washington (state ferries), and Texas (Harris County), concentrated among mid-to-large municipal and county health systems and retirement boards. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years); the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance at 14 ferry locations statewide (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on August 31); and Santa Clara County Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Given the disconnect between the code title and the opportunities it spans, vendors should verify code accuracy with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities tagged to 85622565.
