UNSPSC 85693017 Revision of synthetic substitute in right radius, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The code's nominal scope describes an orthopedic surgical procedure (revision of a synthetic implant in the radius bone), yet the six opportunities posted in the <most-recent-state-local-contract-opportunities> block are all health services procurement — independent medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve procurement or supply of the physical prosthetic device or surgical consumables the code name denotes. The issuing bodies span a municipal retirement office (City of Phoenix), a city benefits administration (City of Long Beach), a state transportation agency (Washington State Department of Transportation), a county juvenile justice system (Harris County), a county benefits consortium (Collier County), and a county health system (Santa Clara County) — a wide cross-section of local jurisdictions managing health and safety programs rather than orthopedic supply chains.

The geographic spread captures Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida activity across the six opportunities. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, proposals due October 16, 2026) managing disability benefit determinations for public safety pension applicants, and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, proposals due October 9, 2026) serving ferries employees across 14 locations statewide. The code shows no genuine recent activity in orthopedic device procurement or implant supply; the tagging appears to reflect a data classification error or misalignment between the code's definition and the work being sourced. Practitioners should verify the actual commodity or service family needed before pursuing opportunities under this code.
