UNSPSC 85681556 Reposition hyoid bone with internal fixation device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a surgical procedure, but recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code show little activity directly aligned with orthopedic or maxillofacial surgery. The code shows substantial mismatch between its procedural scope and actual buying activity in the state and local marketplace.

The source contains five recent opportunities posted between February and April 2026, none of which involve hyoid bone repositioning or surgical fixation devices. Instead, the solicitations reflect procurement of comprehensive healthcare and wellness services: the Columbus Consolidated Government (Muscogee County, Georgia) is seeking inmate medical and pharmacy services for a 576-bed correctional facility through RFP No. 26-0008 (due May 15, 2026); Collier County, Florida is procuring Pharmacy Benefit Management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 dependents through RFP 25-8414 (due April 9, 2026); Monroe County, Florida is requesting Virtual Primary and Urgent Care Services for 2,300 county members through an RFP due April 16, 2026; San Mateo County, California issued an RFP for peer support services under the Mental Health Services Act with $580,000 in funding and a July 2, 2025 deadline; and the Santa Monica Fire Department posted an RFP for a medical director position due October 16, 2025. The issuing bodies span county health departments, county human resources divisions, behavioral health agencies, and municipal fire departments across Georgia, Florida, and California. The code does not appear to capture the actual procurement universe for surgical implants or orthopedic devices in state and local healthcare contexts. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the source data or that this code is not routinely used by state and local purchasing offices for the goods or services they actually solicit under it.
