About UNSPSC 85712168

UNSPSC 85712168 Removal of infusion device from left shoulder joint, open approach is a Commodity code with little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities tagged to it cover occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, surgical care-outs for employee health plans, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, emergency medical services for detained youth, and independent medical examinations—none of which align with the surgical removal of an infusion device. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the state and local UNSPSC tagging infrastructure or that this code is not actively solicited by state and local buyers for its intended scope.

The recent opportunities instead reflect broader health benefits administration, occupational medicine, and clinical staffing procurement. The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSF medical surveillance, due October 9, 2026), City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical evaluations, due October 16, 2026), and County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing, due October 7, 2026) represent the issuing-body mix, spanning state departments, municipal retirement systems, and county health authorities across Washington, Arizona, and California. No recurring buyer or geographic concentration emerges from the opportunities, and no recent solicitation directly targets the procedural scope named in the code itself. Firms evaluating this code should verify issuing-body tagging practices before committing resources to pursue opportunities listed under it.
