UNSPSC 85712268 Extirpation of matter from right shoulder joint, open approach is a Commodity code with minimal relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure — does not align with the solicitations recently tagged under it. The recent opportunities in the dataset include independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical carve-out benefit management for employee health plans (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County Health System). None of these solicitations involve orthopedic surgical procedures or joint-matter removal; they represent medical administration, benefit management, occupational health, and clinical staffing services instead.

The code shows no meaningful procurement activity aligned with its procedural scope. Buyers using this code appear to be state and local health systems, counties, and municipal pension or HR departments, but the actual work being solicited diverges substantially from the code's definition. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for surgical-procedure services and verify the correct UNSPSC classification with the issuing body before pursuing opportunities tagged under it.
