UNSPSC 85712071 Reposition left wrist joint, open approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure; however, recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code show little alignment with orthopedic wrist surgery. The code appears to reflect a taxonomy mismatch rather than active procurement demand for the procedure itself. The recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing pools, surgical carve-out benefits, and youth detention medical care — none of which involve wrist joint repositioning surgery. Issuing bodies include state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara County), county probation departments (Harris County), county boards of commissioners (Collier County), city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), and municipal governments (City of Long Beach). The solicitations reflect broader health services and benefits administration rather than orthopedic surgical procedures.

Recent activity concentrates in the West and Southwest: Washington State (Department of Transportation occupational surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026), Arizona (Phoenix Retirement Office disability medical evaluation RFP due October 16, 2026), California (Santa Clara County temporary staffing RFP due October 7, 2026, and Long Beach surgery carve-out RFP due October 7, 2026), Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management RFP with historical spend near $8.7 million annually), and Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation RFI due September 25, 2026). The code shows no meaningful recent procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope; business development professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before pursuing opportunities tagged under this number, as the taxonomy assignment does not reflect the actual work being solicited.
