UNSPSC 85702740 Removal of internal fixation device from right metatarsal, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The source contains six recent opportunities tagged with this code, but only one—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services posted September 16, 2026 with a response date of October 16, 2026—bears any plausible connection to the code's nominal scope. The remaining five solicitations (Long Beach's surgical benefit program carve-out, Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance, Harris County Juvenile Probation emergency and specialty medical services, Collier County pharmacy benefit management, and Santa Clara County temporary health professional staffing) address broader healthcare administration, occupational health, detention facility medical care, pharmacy operations, and temporary clinical staffing—none of which map to surgical removal of hardware from a specific bone.

The Phoenix opportunity is the only credible signal under this code. The City seeks a contractor to prepare medical record summaries and coordinate independent medical and psychiatric examinations for approximately 75 annual disability benefit applications under Arizona's Public Safety Personnel Retirement System, with maximum contract compensation of $750,000 over five years commencing February 3, 2027. Examining physicians must be M.D. or D.O. licensed in Arizona with documented experience in disability evaluations; the contractor acts as the sole billing entity and manages all examinations, reporting, and administrative coordination. The code's nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—does not match the work state and local governments are actually buying here. This code warrants monitoring for future activity, but current solicitations do not present a clear operational opportunity aligned with the Commodity's stated descriptor.
