UNSPSC 85671738 Division of left lower extremity bursa and ligament, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no alignment between its nominal medical-procedure classification and the state and local contract opportunities actually being solicited under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefits carve-outs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve orthopedic surgical procedures on the lower extremity. This code appears to have been misapplied or conflated with broader healthcare services procurements by the issuing bodies.

The issuing bodies active under the code include city retirement offices and pension boards (City of Phoenix), municipal human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), county health systems (Collier County, County of Santa Clara), and county boards of commissioners. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no concentration in any single jurisdiction. Recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's October 16, 2026 RFP for independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations (maximum contract value $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's October 9, 2026 RFP for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers across 14 statewide locations, the City of Long Beach's October 7, 2026 RFP for surgical procedure Centers of Excellence carve-out benefits for approximately 3,800 enrolled municipal employees and retirees, and the County of Santa Clara Health System's October 7, 2026 solicitation to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories on a non-exclusive, multiple-award basis with no guaranteed work. The code does not reflect meaningful procurement activity in its stated scope.
