UNSPSC 85692102 Revision of synthetic substitute in left scapula, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code tagged to state and local opportunities that bear no material relationship to orthopedic surgical implants or procedures. The recent solicitations posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out networks for public employees, temporary health professional staffing, emergency services for detained youth, and related health plan administration—none of which involve synthetic scapular implants, revision surgery, or percutaneous orthopedic interventions. The code appears to have been applied incorrectly to health-services procurement notices; the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being bought suggests this code does not reliably capture orthopedic implant or surgical-procedure procurement at the state and local level.

The opportunities actually posted under this code originate from diverse issuing bodies including state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and special-purpose health districts (Santa Clara Health System). Geographic activity spans Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations due October 16, 2026 with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services with historical annual spending of approximately $8.7 million. No recent opportunities reflect procurement of the orthopedic surgical services or implant products the code nominally describes.
