This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from left tarsal, percutaneous endoscopic approach.

UNSPSC 85705512 Removal of synthetic substitute from left tarsal, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent procurement activity under state and local government contracts. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure code borrowed from medical billing taxonomy—does not align with the actual work state and local governments are buying. The recent opportunities tagged to this code instead cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out benefit programs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. These represent healthcare administration, benefits management, and staffing services rather than the procedural intervention the code describes.

The issuing bodies in the recent opportunities include a state department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county agencies (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Santa Clara County Health System, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and cities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). The geographic spread spans Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Representative opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026, covering baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry locations; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation RFP due October 16, 2026, for disability benefit applications at $750,000 over five years; and the Santa Clara County Health System's non-exclusive vendor pool solicitation due October 7, 2026, for temporary ancillary health professional staffing. The code appears to be a data-entry mismatch rather than an active procurement category for the services state and local governments are actually soliciting.
