This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of synthetic substitute in left acromioclavicular joint, open approach.

UNSPSC 85711102 Revision of synthetic substitute in left acromioclavicular joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows a fundamental mismatch between its nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—and the actual work state and local governments are buying under it. Recent solicitations tagged to this code do not involve acromioclavicular joint revision; instead, they cover occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, health professional staffing pools, and surgical carve-out benefit programs for employee health plans. The issuing bodies include county governments, city retirement offices, state transportation departments, health systems, and county boards of commissioners. This code appears to capture a diverse range of occupational health and employee benefits administration rather than surgical procedures themselves.

Geographic activity spans Washington State (Washington State Department of Transportation), California (Santa Clara County Health System, City of Long Beach), Arizona (City of Phoenix), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County). Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026, which requires baseline, periodic, and exit medical examinations for ferry workers across 14 locations with physician supervision; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, supporting disability benefit determinations for public safety personnel; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive qualified vendor pool RFP due October 7, 2026, for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories. The code's tagging appears to reflect administrative or coding errors in the source jurisdictions' procurement systems rather than genuine alignment with surgical procedure procurement.
