UNSPSC 85711205 Removal of internal fixation device from left acromioclavicular joint, open approach (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged to this code involve occupational and disability medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, emergency and specialty hospital services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with the orthopedic surgical procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either miscoding of the underlying opportunities or a systematic divergence between the code's medical procedure focus and how state and local jurisdictions are actually applying it in procurement.

The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 originate from a mix of issuing bodies: municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), county government (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), state health and transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), and municipalities (City of Long Beach). Geographic coverage spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 (contract value $750,000 over five years), Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations due October 9, 2026, and the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits for 3,800 employees and retirees due October 7, 2026. If your firm pursues this code, verify the UNSPSC assignment with each issuing office before bid preparation.
