UNSPSC 85673108 Supplement left upper extremity bursa and ligament with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work being solicited in the state and local opportunities tagged to it. The recent opportunities posted under this code target occupational health surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical care coordination, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve orthopedic surgical procedures on the shoulder or upper extremity. The code appears to be a medical procedure taxonomy entry misapplied to administrative and clinical staffing procurement, creating a significant mismatch between the nominal code scope and actual buying activity.

The state and local jurisdictions posting opportunities tagged to this code span multiple sectors and regions: the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical record review and independent medical examinations), the City of Long Beach (surgical Centers of Excellence benefit carve-out), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and Santa Clara County Health System (temporary health professional staffing). Recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP 20260825 due October 9, 2026 for occupational medical surveillance across 14 Washington ferry locations; the City of Phoenix's RTMRFP26001 due October 16, 2026 for independent medical evaluations supporting public safety pension disability determinations; and Santa Clara County Health System's RFSQHHSFY270052 due October 7, 2026 establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing. Geographic activity includes Washington, Arizona, California, and Florida. The administrative and clinical service focus, combined with the misalignment between the code name and actual procurement scope, suggests this code carries limited relevance for firms pursuing surgical or orthopedic device contracts in state and local markets.
