UNSPSC 85662167 Reposition left lower leg tendon, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities associated with this code span occupational and disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employees, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth—none of which align with orthopedic surgical procedures. The code shows a substantial mismatch between its nominal scope and what state and local governments are actually procuring under this classification, suggesting either a systemic tagging error or use of the code as a catch-all for broader healthcare services procurement.

The issuing bodies span state departments, county governments, and municipal agencies: the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance), Collier County (pharmacy benefit management), Santa Clara County Health System (temporary health professional staffing), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical record review and independent medical evaluations), and the City of Long Beach (surgical procedure carve-out benefits). Recent opportunities are concentrated in California, Florida, Arizona, Washington, and Texas. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix's request for independent medical evaluation services with a $750,000 five-year maximum (RFP due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP with cost-based evaluation (due October 9, 2026), and Santa Clara County's multiple-award health professional staffing pool (due October 7, 2026). The code's present activity offers limited relevance to orthopedic surgery providers unless reframed as healthcare services management or benefits administration rather than direct surgical delivery.
