UNSPSC 85631477 Extirpation of matter from left upper arm skin, external approach is a Commodity code with a material mismatch between its nominal scope—a dermatological procedure—and the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under it. Recent opportunities posted against this code involve occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension benefit determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical care coordination through Centers of Excellence, specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary clinical staffing—none of which involve dermatological procedures or surgical extraction from upper arm tissue. The code shows no relevant procurement activity aligned with its stated medical taxonomy.

The source records six recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code, spanning August through September 2026, but none reflect dermatological or surgical work. The issuing bodies include city pension boards (Phoenix), municipal health departments (Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara County), county juvenile justice programs (Harris County), and county procurement offices (Collier County). Geographic spread covers Arizona, California, Washington, and Texas. The code appears to have been applied incorrectly to these opportunities by the posting agencies; it does not reflect active, relevant state and local procurement in dermatological or upper arm surgical services.
