UNSPSC 85681114 Supplement hyoid bone with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows a sharp mismatch between its nominal scope—a surgical procedure to supplement the hyoid bone with synthetic material during open surgical approach—and the actual work being solicited under it in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged to this code cover inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction. None of these solicitations involve orthopedic or otolaryngologic surgical procedures, bone supplementation, or synthetic implant placement. The code does not represent ongoing work in state and local procurement at this time.

No recent state and local opportunities under this code involve the hyoid bone supplementation procedure the code nominally describes. The opportunities posted to the code between February and May 2026 span diverse healthcare service categories—correctional health management, pharmacy administration, virtual care platforms, mental health peer support, and fire department medical oversight—but none address surgical services or implant provision. The source does not support activity characterization, issuing-body concentration patterns, or geographic concentration for this code. The mismatch between code assignment and actual solicitation scope suggests a cataloging error in the state or local procurement systems rather than active procurement demand under the code's intended commodity definition.
