UNSPSC 85714313 Removal of external fixation device from right finger phalangeal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code whose nominal title does not reflect the scope of work actually being solicited under it in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities posted against this code span medical evaluation, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit administration, temporary clinical staffing, and specialty surgery networks—none of which involve orthopedic surgical procedures on finger joints. The issuing bodies include county boards (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners), cities (Phoenix Retirement Office on behalf of pension boards, Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), and regional health systems (County of Santa Clara Health System). The work being solicited reflects administrative and operational health care contracting rather than surgical intervention.

Recent activity spans multiple states with no geographic concentration: Arizona (City of Phoenix, RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability retirement determinations, due October 16, 2026); California (City of Long Beach, RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs, due October 7, 2026; County of Santa Clara Health System, RFQ for temporary health professional staffing, due October 7, 2026); Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, RFP for pharmacy benefit management services); Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, RFI for emergency and specialty medical services); and Washington (WSDOT on behalf of Washington State Ferries, RFP for occupational medical surveillance, due October 9, 2026 with pre-bid conference August 31, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated scope—the tagging appears to reflect a systematic cataloging mismatch rather than genuine surgical procurement demand.
