UNSPSC 85712288 Destruction of right wrist joint, open approach is a Commodity code that has produced no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure for wrist joint destruction, but the six recent opportunities posted under this code tag across state and local jurisdictions concern occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which align with orthopedic surgical procedures on the wrist. The mismatch between the code's clinical specification and the actual buying activity suggests either miscoding in the source data or limited applicability of this code to state and local procurement workflows.

The recent opportunities in the dataset span the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluation RFP with $750,000 five-year value), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance RFP across 14 ferry locations), the City of Long Beach (surgical carve-out benefit program RFP), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management RFP with approximately $8.7 million annual historical spend), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services RFI), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary ancillary health professional staffing multiple-award vehicle). These jurisdictions and solicitation types indicate that state and local procurement in the medical services space centers on benefits administration, occupational health compliance, temporary workforce access, and emergency care delivery rather than surgical procedures. Vendors pursuing work under this code should verify whether UNSPSC 85712288 correctly tags their target opportunities or whether alternative codes better match the buying patterns currently visible in state and local markets.
