UNSPSC 85703760 Removal of internal fixation device from right tibia, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that reflects a mismatch between its procedural medical nomenclature and the scope of work actually being solicited under it in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not include surgical implant removal services; instead, they encompass comprehensive healthcare administration, pharmacy benefit management, virtual care delivery, peer mental health support, and EMS medical direction. State and local governments are not procuring orthopedic surgical procedures directly—these are clinical services typically embedded within broader healthcare contracts or managed through health plan administration. The issuing bodies include county governments (Muscogee County, Georgia; Collier County, Florida; Monroe County, Florida; San Mateo County, California) and municipal fire departments (Santa Monica), with health plan administrators, benefits consultants, and behavioral health departments as the primary procuring divisions.

Geographic activity is concentrated in Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), with additional recent solicitations from Georgia and California. The Muscogee County Prison RFP (due May 15, 2026) seeks comprehensive inmate medical and pharmacy services on an annual contract basis with current monthly costs of $95,537.71 and a two-year initial term. The Collier County RFP for Pharmacy Benefit Management Services (due April 9, 2026) manages coverage for approximately 2,400 enrolled employees and 4,800 covered members with historical annual pharmacy spending of approximately $8.7 million, structured as a three-year agreement with optional renewals. Monroe County's RFP for Virtual Primary and Urgent Care Services (due April 16, 2026) serves approximately 2,300 county members, while San Mateo County's Mental Health Services Act Innovation peer support pilot (funded at $580,000 over three years) and the Santa Monica Fire Department's Medical Director RFP represent smaller, specialized procurements. This code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal procedural scope; the mismatch suggests potential data-entry error in how opportunities were tagged rather than genuine state and local demand for orthopedic surgical implant removal services as a standalone procurement category.
