UNSPSC 85672908 Supplement left upper extremity bursa and ligament with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure. The code's nominal scope does not align with the actual work state and local governments are purchasing under this taxonomy entry. Recent solicitations tagged to this code reflect healthcare administration, medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve orthopedic implantation or surgical procedures. The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), and city pension systems (City of Phoenix), with healthcare systems and public employers across multiple jurisdictions soliciting medical services administration and staffing support rather than surgical supplies or implants.

The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no single state dominating recent activity.
