UNSPSC 85641864 Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from upper extremity subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the scope of work state and local governments are actually soliciting under this taxonomy designation. The recent opportunities posted against this code involve occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for public safety pension systems, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty surgical center-of-excellence networks, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which align with surgical removal procedures on the upper extremity. The mismatch suggests either a broad miscoding practice or a taxonomy data error at the source level; the Commodity code appears unsuitable for characterizing current state and local procurement activity in medical services contracting.

The issuing bodies active in the recent opportunities include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county-level procurement offices (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), municipal government (City of Long Beach), city retirement systems (City of Phoenix), and health systems and county criminal justice agencies. Geographic activity spans Washington, Florida, California, Texas, and Arizona. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP for ferry employees (response due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP supporting public safety pension boards (response due October 16, 2026), and Collier County's pharmacy benefit management RFP covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees (response due April 9, 2026). No recent opportunities under this code actually solicit surgical tissue removal services.
