UNSPSC 85694627 Revision of synthetic substitute in right metacarpal, open approach is a Commodity code that displays minimal alignment between its clinical taxonomy label and the actual state and local contracting activity tagged under it. Recent opportunities posted under this code concern occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations for pension systems, surgical care networks, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve orthopedic prosthetic revision procedures as the code name suggests. The mismatch indicates either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or a data-quality issue in the underlying opportunity records, and the code should not be relied upon to identify actual prosthetic implant or orthopedic surgical procurement.

The geographic spread of these mislabeled opportunities spans Arizona (Phoenix Retirement Office), California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), Washington State (WSDOT ferries), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with issuing bodies ranging from city retirement offices and county health systems to state transportation agencies. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) scoped at $750,000 over five years for disability pension determinations, the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). No recent activity under this code addresses orthopedic implant procurement, revision procedures, or surgical supplies.
