UNSPSC 85702116 Repair coccyx, external approach is a Commodity code whose nominal title does not align with the medical services actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement. The recent opportunities posted against this code reflect a mix of occupational health surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-outs, pharmacy benefit management, specialty medical provider networks for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve coccyx repair. The code appears to be a miscategorization artifact in state and local procurement systems; issuers are tagging broader medical administration and occupational health services under it rather than orthopedic or surgical procedures matching the code's anatomical scope. State and local issuing bodies posting under this code include county health systems (Santa Clara, Harris County Juvenile Probation), municipal retirement boards (City of Phoenix), municipal employee benefits programs (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), and county benefits consortia (Collier County Health Care Consortium). The work actually being bought spans occupational medicine surveillance, disability benefits administration, health plan design, and medical staffing.

Geographic activity concentrates in the Southwest and West Coast. The most recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance contract for ferry workers across 14 Washington State locations (proposals due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services for public safety disability determinations ($750,000 over five years, proposals due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out program for Anthem PPO enrollees (RFP, proposals due October 7, 2026); the County of Santa Clara Health System's temporary health professional staffing vendor pool across 13 ancillary clinical categories (proposals due October 7, 2026); Harris County Juvenile Probation Department's RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (responses due September 25, 2026); and Collier County's Pharmacy Benefit Management Services solicitation covering approximately 2,400 enrolled employees (historical spend $8.7 million annually, proposals originally due April 9, 2026). The code shows no meaningful activity aligned with its stated scope and should not be expected to surface coccyx repair or orthopedic surgery opportunities.
