UNSPSC 85695117 Revision of synthetic substitute in right thumb phalanx, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevance to actual state and local procurement activity. The code's specific orthopedic procedure description does not align with the scope of work appearing in recent state and local solicitations tagged under it. Instead, issuing bodies are soliciting comprehensive healthcare services — occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical care networks — none of which map to the narrow, procedure-specific clinical intervention the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either miscoding of opportunities by issuing offices or administrative use of the code outside its intended scope. State and local buyers appear to use this code designation for broad health services contracting rather than for discrete orthopedic procedures.

Recent opportunities span multiple jurisdictions and issuing-body types: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluation for public safety pension disability determinations, RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance for ferry system employees, RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), the City of Long Beach (surgical carve-out benefit program, RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026), Santa Clara County Health System (temporary health professional staffing pool, RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026), and Collier County, Florida (pharmacy benefit management, RFP 25-8414, approximately $8.7 million annually). Activity is concentrated in the West and California, with isolated activity in Arizona and Florida. The code appears to serve as a catch-all designation for health services and benefit administration work rather than a reliable indicator of orthopedic procedure procurement.
