UNSPSC 85694246 Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from right humeral head, percutaneous endoscopic approach — a Commodity code — shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code names a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code span medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical benefit carve-outs, youth detention healthcare, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve orthopedic implant removal or the narrowly defined procedure the code describes.

State and local procurement offices appear to have tagged these health and human services opportunities with an orthopedic procedure code that does not match their actual scope. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the issuing systems or a data quality issue in how opportunities are being coded. A business development professional evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for state and local pursuit and verify the actual service lines being solicited before developing capability around it.
