UNSPSC 85661226 Excision of right abdomen tendon, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but recent opportunities tagged under this code reflect actual state and local demand for occupational medical surveillance, disability benefits medical evaluation services, health plan administration and benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve surgical intervention or the procedure named in the code's abstract designation. The issuing bodies pursuing these activities span city retirement systems, county health systems and benefits administration offices, state departments of transportation, and county probation departments. The mismatch between the code's surgical nomenclature and the operational scope of recent solicitations suggests either systematic miscoding or a fundamental incompatibility between the taxonomy and current procurement practice in this domain.

The most substantive recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (response due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington State Ferries locations (response due October 9, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for a surgery and medical procedure carve-out benefit program (response due October 7, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's qualification solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (response due October 7, 2026). Geographic activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, and Florida. The code shows no recent demand for the surgical procedure it nominally describes and does not serve as a useful targeting vehicle for business development in state and local procurement.
