UNSPSC 85704619 Reposition left patella, open approach is a Commodity code describing a specific orthopedic surgical procedure. The recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show minimal alignment with the code's nominal surgical scope; instead, they reflect broader healthcare administration, occupational medicine, benefit management, and clinical staffing services. The code's recent activity centers on procurement of medical evaluation services, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit administration, specialty surgical care networks, and temporary clinical staffing—none of which involves direct performance of the patella repositioning procedure itself. State and local issuing bodies posting under this code include independent pension boards (Phoenix Fire and Police Pension Boards), municipal health systems (County of Santa Clara Health System), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice agencies (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and county commissioners' offices (Collier County Board of County Commissioners). These vary widely in size and mission, suggesting the code may be applied inconsistently across procurement systems.

Geographic activity spans Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), Washington State (WSDOT/Washington State Ferries), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), offering a five-year contract valued at $750,000 total maximum compensation for disability medical record summary and examination scheduling; the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) for baseline and periodic medical examinations across 14 ferry system locations; the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit programs (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) managing specialty Centers of Excellence for orthopedic, spine, and oncology procedures; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive qualified vendor pool RFP for temporary ancillary clinical staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The mismatch between the code's surgical procedure name and the actual procurement activity suggests either persistent tagging error across multiple jurisdictions or a coding system misalignment that business development professionals should verify before pursuing opportunities under this code.
