This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to transfer left upper leg muscle with skin and subcutaneous tissue, open approach.

UNSPSC 85652718 Transfer left upper leg muscle with skin and subcutaneous tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure. The recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with the code's nominal scope. Instead, the solicitations span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical benefits administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention medical services — none of which involve muscle transfer procedures. The code appears to have been applied inconsistently or incorrectly to health services procurement activities that fall outside orthopedic surgery specialization. State and local buyers using this code include municipal retirement boards (Phoenix), county health systems (Santa Clara, Harris County), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), and municipal employee benefit programs (City of Long Beach, Collier County).

Recent opportunities reflect diverse geographic activity across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The Washington State Department of Transportation is soliciting occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 locations statewide, with proposals due October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office is seeking independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, with proposals due October 16, 2026 and a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; and the City of Long Beach is requesting proposals for a surgical benefits carve-out program serving approximately 3,800 employees and retirees, with proposals due October 7, 2026. Collier County is procuring pharmacy benefit management services with historical annual spending near $8.7 million, and Santa Clara County Health System is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories, with responses due October 7, 2026. Given the code's mismatch with actual procurement activity, business development professionals should verify code assignment with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities tagged under this Commodity.
