UNSPSC 85703509 Revision of external fixation device in right fibula, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not match the recent state and local procurement activity posted under it. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged to this code span independent medical evaluation services, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgical networks, emergency youth detention healthcare, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve external fixation devices or percutaneous revision procedures. The mismatch suggests either a systematic tagging error in the source data or a catalog miscoding issue; the code shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement for its stated scope.

The issuing bodies posting under this code include city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal health systems (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), and county commissioner procurement offices (Collier County). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no concentration in any single region. Recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance (due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026). None of these solicitations address musculoskeletal device procurement or orthopedic surgical procedures.
