UNSPSC 85712144 Removal of internal fixation device from right wrist joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six posted opportunities in the source — independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — do not involve orthopedic surgical procedures or the removal of internal fixation devices. The code appears to describe a specific surgical procedure rather than a procurement category that state and local governments regularly solicit.

No representative opportunities align with this Commodity code's stated scope. State and local buyers in the source material are purchasing healthcare administration, medical staffing, and benefits management services, not surgical procedures themselves. Practitioners and business development professionals should verify whether this code reflects an administrative or billing classification versus an operational procurement taxonomy, or confirm the source of the code assignment before pursuing activity under it.
