UNSPSC 85691916 Revision of internal fixation device in right rib, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope — orthopedic surgical device placement — bears no relationship to the actual work state and local governments are buying under this code. The recent solicitations tagged to this code involve occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical procedure carve-out network management, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these services involve orthopedic implants or rib-fixation procedures. The code shows no relevant recent activity aligned with its stated scope; the opportunities appearing in the dataset reflect a significant mismatch between the code assignment and the work being procured.

The issuing bodies include a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and departments (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office). Geographic activity spans Washington, California, Arizona, Florida, and Texas. Representative opportunities include the Washington State Ferries' occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing qualification solicitation due October 7, 2026. Because the underlying code assignment is fundamentally misaligned with the services actually being solicited, buyers should verify code assignment before pursuing opportunities in this dataset.
