UNSPSC 85692441 Extirpation of matter from sternum, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code are medical and health services procurement unrelated to sternum procedures — disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit carve-outs, emergency medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing. The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the breadth of health administration and staffing work tagged to it suggests either a coding error in one or more posting systems or that this code has drifted significantly from its intended use in state and local procurement.

The issuing bodies across the six opportunities span multiple jurisdictions and sectors: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Recent notice types include RFP (Phoenix, Long Beach, WSDOT, Santa Clara), RFI (Harris County), and RFQ language (Collier County). Response deadlines cluster in October 2026, with the exception of Collier County's April 2026 deadline (retroactively past relative to the current date of October 20, 2026). Geographic activity appears spread across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no clear regional concentration. Because the code itself does not map clearly to the actual work being solicited, firms should verify coding accuracy in any opportunity posting before committing resources to pursuit.
