UNSPSC 85673331 Supplement right shoulder bursa and ligament with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a surgical procedure, yet recent state and local opportunities tagged under it bear no material relationship to orthopedic implantation or procedural supply. The recent opportunities instead span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, disability medical evaluations, surgical center-of-excellence network curation, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency youth detention medical services—none of which involve the procurement, supply, or installation of synthetic shoulder bursa or ligament implants. The mismatch between the code's procedural descriptor and the actual work being solicited suggests either consistent miscoding within state and local procurement systems or a mapping error within the UNSPSC taxonomy as applied by these jurisdictions.

Issuing bodies include a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), a city government (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), and a county health system (County of Santa Clara Health System). Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026 for $750,000 over five years; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing vehicle due October 7, 2026. Activity is concentrated in the West and Southwest, with additional solicitations from Florida and Texas. No opportunities in this block describe procurement of orthopedic implants, surgical supplies, or medical devices aligned with the code's stated scope.
