UNSPSC 85672128 Extirpation of matter from right ankle bursa and ligament, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose nominal taxonomy label does not align with the work state and local governments are actually soliciting under this code. Recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which involve orthopedic procedures. The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and procurement offices (Santa Clara County Health System, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and city retirement and human resources divisions (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). This appears to be a tagging error rather than active procurement under the code's stated clinical scope.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Washington State, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's October 9, 2026 RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (pre-bid conference August 31, 2026) covering baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry system locations; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's October 16, 2026 RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications for public safety pension determinations, with a five-year maximum contract value of $750,000; and Santa Clara County Health System's October 7, 2026 RFQ to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned to its stated orthopedic procedure scope and should be monitored for mis-tagging correction or clarification from issuing procurement offices before pursuit.
