UNSPSC 85692984, Removal of internal fixation device from right humeral head, external approach, is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six recent opportunities tagged under this code involve independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which correspond to orthopedic surgical procedures or the removal of internal fixation devices. The code's narrow clinical specificity does not align with the administrative healthcare procurement, occupational health services, and staffing contracting that state and local bodies actually solicit in this record.

The mismatch between the code's surgical procedure scope and the opportunities present suggests either systematic miscoding at the source level or that this particular orthopedic surgical commodity does not see regular state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies including the City of Phoenix, the City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County, Collier County, and Santa Clara County Health System, but none involve procurement of orthopedic surgical services or device removal procedures. Vendors pursuing state and local contracts under this code should verify whether the code is actively used by their target jurisdictions or whether related orthopedic procedures are classified under a different UNSPSC family.
