UNSPSC 85704818 Reposition left patella with external fixation device, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code's medical procedure description does not match the scope of work being solicited under it in recent opportunities. State and local governments posting opportunities tagged to this code are instead buying occupational health surveillance services, independent medical evaluations for disability benefits, surgical care networks and Centers of Excellence carve-outs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth — none of which involve orthopedic surgical procedures or external fixation devices. The issuing bodies span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), counties (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), and their health systems and retirement boards.

Recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026, covering baseline and periodic medical examinations across 14 Washington ferry system locations; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, supporting disability benefit determinations for approximately 75 annual public safety pension applications; the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs due October 7, 2026, offering pre- and post-care for orthopedic, spine, and cardiac procedures through Centers of Excellence; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification solicitation for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026, covering audiology, radiology, cardiology, orthopedic, and surgical operating room services. This code does not report relevant recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope.
