UNSPSC 85695226 Removal of internal fixation device from right thumb phalanx, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no material recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal medical procedure scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code reflect a significant mismatch: they solicit medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, surgical carve-out programs, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which involve removal of orthopedic fixation devices. The code designation appears to be a data-classification artifact rather than a signal of active market demand for this specific procedure.

The six opportunities in the source span health system purchasing (Santa Clara Health System, County of Long Beach, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), retirement-benefit administration (City of Phoenix), state transportation (Washington State Department of Transportation), and county employee benefits (Collier County), with due dates between September and October 2026. The geographic spread covers California, Arizona, Washington, Florida, and Texas. No issuing body has posted multiple solicitations under this code, and none of the work being bought — occupational surveillance protocols, specialty surgery networks, pharmacy claims processing, youth detention medical care, or nursing-level staffing placement — aligns with orthopedic device extraction. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for state and local procurement purposes and verify the correct commodity classification before investing pursuit effort.
