UNSPSC 85712250 Fusion of right elbow joint with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—does not align with the recent state and local contracting activity tagged under it. The opportunities posted under this code over the past three months reflect medical staffing, benefit administration, occupational health surveillance, and pharmacy management services, none of which constitute the elbow fusion procedure the code describes. State and local jurisdictions are not procuring orthopedic surgical procedures themselves; they are contracting for medical evaluation services, occupational health examinations, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing to support employee health plans and detention-facility medical care.

Recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no geographic concentration. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) for independent medical evaluation services to support disability pension determinations across two pension boards, with a $750,000 five-year term. The City of Long Beach issued an RFP (HR26753, due October 7, 2026) for a surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit program offering Centers of Excellence networks for knee, hip, orthopedic, shoulder, spine, heart, weight loss, and oncology procedures. The Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFQ (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations. The County of Santa Clara Health System solicited qualifications for a five-year temporary health professional staffing pool (due October 7, 2026) across 13 ancillary clinical categories excluding nursing and physicians. Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI (071626BNM, due September 25, 2026) for specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned to its elbow fusion scope.
