UNSPSC 85711579 Removal of infusion device from right sternoclavicular joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code whose nominal name bears no relation to state and local procurement activity under it. The recent opportunities posted against this code are entirely health services administration and staffing — independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, Centers of Excellence surgical carve-outs for municipal employee benefit plans, occupational medical surveillance, youth detention healthcare delivery, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. The issuing bodies are county human resources departments, city retirement boards, county health systems, state transportation agencies, and county health consortiums. This mismatch between the code's medical-procedure name and the actual procurement activity suggests either a systematic tagging error in the state and local procurement system or a data-collection artifact where health-administration opportunities are being miscoded into a surgical-procedure commodity.

Recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Washington, and Florida, with activity concentrated in municipal and county human resources, health system employment, and public pension administration. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out program management (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026, with pre-bid conference August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code shows activity but does not reliably reflect procurement intent as named — firms pursuing contracts in health services administration, employee benefits consulting, occupational health, or clinical staffing should verify actual posting language and scope against this code before relying on it for market identification.
