This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to extirpation of matter from right trunk bursa and ligament, open approach.

UNSPSC 85672554, Extirpation of matter from right trunk bursa and ligament, open approach, is a Commodity code that state and local procurement records do not align with the code's clinical surgical scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code—independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance, specialty and emergency medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—do not involve orthopedic or general surgical procedures matching the code's nominal definition. The mismatch suggests either miscoding by the issuing jurisdictions or that the code has been repurposed in state and local procurement taxonomy in ways that do not reflect its original clinical definition.

Geographic spread across the recent opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with no concentration in any single region. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) supporting disability benefit determinations for approximately 75 annual applicants, the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference on August 31), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code shows no decision-relevant activity aligned with its stated surgical scope and warrants verification against the correct commodity classification before business development pursuit.
