UNSPSC 85671143 Division of perineum bursa and ligament, open approach is a Commodity code describing a specific surgical procedure. Recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not reflect the nominal scope — the code appears to have been misapplied to solicitations for occupational medical surveillance, disability pension medical evaluations, employee health benefit carve-outs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare services. None of these opportunities involve perineal or bursal surgical procedures. State and local procurement activity under this code shows no relevant recent opportunities aligned with the code's stated medical procedure classification.

The mismatch between the code's surgical procedure name and the healthcare administration and staffing services actually being solicited suggests either systematic miscoding at the issuing bodies or an anomalous assignment of this code in the underlying data set. Firms evaluating pursuit decisions under this code should verify whether the opportunity truly requires surgical procedure expertise or whether the code assignment is a data-entry error that masks the actual service category being bought.
