UNSPSC 85701018 Revision of internal fixation device in right pelvic bone, external approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a surgical procedure, but recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code do not involve orthopedic device implantation or pelvic bone surgery. Instead, the recent opportunities reflect a broader range of medical and health services procurement — disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs for Centers of Excellence, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty care for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. The code appears misaligned with the work actually being solicited; the opportunities show that state and local jurisdictions are buying administrative healthcare services, occupational health programs, benefit plan management, and clinical staffing services rather than surgical implants or orthopedic procedures.

The issuing bodies span multiple sectors: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (pension board medical evaluations), the City of Long Beach (employee health plan surgical benefits), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational health), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (youth detention medical care), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary clinical staffing). Geographically, recent activity appears in Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026, with a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years) and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (proposals due October 9, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope of orthopedic surgical procedures.
