UNSPSC 85673532 Extirpation of matter from right shoulder bursa and ligament, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code. The source shows no solicitations for orthopedic surgical procedures or clinical services matching the code's nominal scope. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs, and youth detention medical services — work that falls outside the surgical procedure category the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the tagging system or misalignment between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how the issuing bodies have categorized these opportunities.

The recent opportunities do show a geographic spread across multiple states and a mix of issuing bodies including state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and health systems. However, given the fundamental misalignment between the code's surgical scope and the work actually solicited, this code shows little relevant activity for firms pursuing procurement under its stated definition. Business development professionals should verify the correct code for the specific medical or administrative service lines they pursue, as the current tagging appears unreliable for forecasting opportunity flow in this category.
