UNSPSC 85711364 Removal of internal fixation device from right acromioclavicular joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal scope. State and local agencies have posted solicitations tagged to this surgical procedure code, but the actual work being bought diverges substantially from orthopedic device removal. Recent opportunities instead reflect purchases of independent medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, specialty medical networks, and temporary clinical staffing — none of which align with the code's surgical device classification. The source indicates a mismatch between the UNSPSC taxonomy assignment and the procurement substance.

The recent opportunities show activity across multiple states and issuing bodies including city retirement systems (City of Phoenix), municipal human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Santa Clara Health System), and county benefits consortia (Collier County Board of County Commissioners). However, none of these solicitations target removal of acromioclavicular joint fixation devices or related orthopedic hardware procurement. The code assignment appears to be a data entry or taxonomy assignment error rather than a reflection of genuine procurement demand in this commodity category.
