UNSPSC 85704277 Removal of synthetic substitute from right femoral shaft, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its clinical scope. The six recent opportunities posted under this code cover independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations, surgical procedure carve-out networks for municipal employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical care in youth detention, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve orthopedic prosthetic removal or the specific surgical procedure the code names. The mismatch suggests the code is either miscoded in the state and local taxonomy at issue or used as a placeholder for broader healthcare administration and staffing services that fall outside the commodity's actual definition.

State and local buyers posting under this code in the past three months include municipal pension boards (City of Phoenix), city health benefits programs (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county public safety operations (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county human resources and employee benefits divisions (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara Health System), reflecting a pattern of benefits administration, occupational health, and clinical staffing rather than surgical procedures. Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Without opportunities matching the code's stated scope, the code presents no actionable signal for firms focused on orthopedic device procurement or clinical outcomes in prosthetic removal.
