UNSPSC 85712827 Fusion of left shoulder joint with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The recent solicitations reflect health care administration, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and independent medical evaluation services — none of which represent orthopedic surgical procedures. The code exhibits a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and the purchasing activity actually being tracked under it in state and local procurement systems.

The opportunities posted under this code originate from diverse issuing bodies including municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), county health systems (Santa Clara Health System), county workforce safety agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries), county human resources departments (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), municipalities (City of Long Beach), and county probation departments (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's request for independent medical evaluation services with a $750,000 maximum over five years due October 16, 2026; the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence due October 7, 2026; Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance due October 9, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. The code shows no relevant recent activity for the surgical procedure it nominally describes.
