UNSPSC 85671506 Revision of drainage device in lower bursa and ligament, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the six recent opportunities posted under this code span independent medical evaluation services, surgery benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve revision of drainage devices or orthopedic surgical procedures. The issuing bodies include municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), city health benefits departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county boards (Collier County, Santa Clara County), and regional health systems, indicating the code is being used inconsistently across jurisdictions for medical contracting broadly rather than for the specific procedure it nominally describes.

The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas, with no clear concentration. The recent opportunities bear no meaningful relationship to the code's stated scope: the City of Phoenix is contracting for disability medical record reviews and independent medical examinations for pension applicants; the City of Long Beach is procuring a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026); the Washington State Department of Transportation is soliciting occupational medical surveillance services (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation is issuing an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (RFI 071626BNM, due September 25, 2026); Collier County is requesting pharmacy benefit management proposals (RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026); and Santa Clara County Health System is establishing a temporary health professional staffing qualified vendor pool (RFQ RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity and appears to be a tagging mismatch rather than a category representing actual procurement demand for orthopedic surgical procedures.
