UNSPSC 85691906 Revision of synthetic substitute in right scapula, open approach is a Commodity code tagged to solicitations that do not reflect orthopedic implant procurement or surgical revision services. The recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code involve occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation for disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, health professional temporary staffing, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which align with the code's nominal scope of orthopedic surgical revision. The mismatch suggests that state and local procurement offices are applying this code to unrelated health care administration and staffing services, or that the source data reflects a tagging error rather than legitimate activity under the code's intended commodity classification.

The geographic spread of the mistagged opportunities spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with no pattern suggesting substantive recent activity in orthopedic revision implants or related surgical goods. No representative opportunities exist that support pursuit of this code for its stated commodity purpose.
