UNSPSC 85681155 Resection of hyoid bone, open approach is a Commodity code describing a surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not match this clinical scope. The four posted solicitations — from Columbus Consolidated Government, Collier County, Monroe County, and San Mateo County — all procure healthcare administration and delivery services: inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care, peer support services, and fire department medical direction. None involve hyoid bone resection or surgical procedures. The code shows a significant mismatch between its nominal UNSPSC definition and the actual work state and local jurisdictions are buying under it, suggesting either a tagging error in the source data or use of this code as a generic placeholder for healthcare service procurement.

The recent activity spans four states (Florida, California, Georgia) across county health departments, county commissioners' offices, consolidated city-county government, and a fire department, with no repeat buyers in the block. Geographic spread covers north Florida (Columbus), southwest Florida (Collier and Monroe counties), and the San Francisco Bay Area (San Mateo County). Representative opportunities include the Columbus Consolidated Government's RFP 26-0008 for comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services (due May 15, 2026, with current monthly cost of $95,537.71), Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 7,200 members with historical annual spending of $8.7 million (due April 9, 2026), and Monroe County's RFP for virtual primary and urgent care services for 2,300 county members effective October 1, 2026. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated clinical definition.
