UNSPSC 85713356 Removal of drainage device from left carpal joint, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the state and local procurement activity actually being solicited under this code. The recent opportunities in the source are tagged with this UNSPSC but represent occupational and disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical procedure carve-out programs for municipal and county employee benefit plans — none of which align with orthopedic surgical procedures or carpal joint interventions. This mismatch indicates either a systematic tagging error in the jurisdiction's procurement system or a misclassification in the UNSPSC mapping for these opportunities.

The issuing bodies represented include municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), city health plan administrators (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice agencies (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county benefits consortiums (Collier County Board of County Commissioners and County of Santa Clara Health System), and county health systems. Geographic activity appears across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no concentrated regional clustering evident in the recent records. Given the fundamental mismatch between the code's stated scope and the actual solicitation activity, this code shows little relevant recent procurement activity for firms pursuing medical device, surgical supply, or orthopedic service work. Prospective bidders should verify that their intended service line aligns with the actual work description in any RFP before responding.
