UNSPSC 85682629 Extirpation of matter from right parietal bone, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal descriptor—a surgical procedure involving bone removal—bears no relationship to the state and local government procurement activity actually tagged under it. The recent opportunities sourced to this code span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary medical staffing, pension disability medical evaluations, surgical center-of-excellence networks, and youth detention healthcare services. None involve neurosurgical bone procedures or surgical pathology aligned with the code's clinical name. The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and pension boards (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County), city retirement offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), and municipal workforce management (City of Long Beach). The code shows little relevant recent activity; the mismatch between the code's surgical specificity and the scope of work being purchased suggests either systemic miscoding or an artifact of data aggregation that does not reflect genuine procurement demand for extirpation services.

Geographic activity spans California (Santa Clara County, Long Beach), Arizona (Phoenix), Florida (Collier County), Texas (Harris County), and Washington State, with no jurisdiction appearing as a repeat buyer under this code's label. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, maximum contract value $750,000 over five years) to summarize medical records and coordinate disability examinations for approximately 75 annual pension applications; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, pre-bid conference August 31); and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 county employees (RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026, historical spending approximately $8.7 million annually). Vendors pursuing work under this code face a fundamental transparency problem: the code descriptor does not match the actual work being solicited, making it unreliable as a search or qualification filter for state and local opportunities.
