UNSPSC 85692205 Repair sternum, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code. The recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not describe work related to surgical repair of the sternum or any other surgical procedure. Instead, the opportunities solicited cover independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out program administration, occupational medical surveillance services, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. These opportunities bear no substantive connection to the code's nominal scope — sternum repair procedures are specific surgical interventions, whereas the actual procurements involve medical evaluation administration, benefit program management, occupational health screening, and staffing coordination. The issuing bodies span diverse government sectors: municipal retirement boards (City of Phoenix), a city government procurement office (City of Long Beach), a state transportation agency (Washington State Department of Transportation), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County), a county board of commissioners (Collier County), and a county health system (County of Santa Clara). This code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated commodity scope.

The geographic spread of recent opportunities includes Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida, representing no clear regional concentration. The code produces no decision signal for firms pursuing sternum repair procurement or related surgical services — the posted opportunities do not match the commodity definition, and state and local governments are not actively soliciting sternum repair work under UNSPSC 85692205 as of October 2026.
