UNSPSC 85714332 Removal of drainage device from right metacarpophalangeal joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that carries a medical procedure classification but does not align with the state and local procurement opportunities recently posted under this code. The source shows six recent opportunities tagged to this code, yet none solicit surgical removal of drainage devices or hand orthopedic procedures. Instead, the recent activity reflects procurement of medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, specialty pharmacy benefit management, center-of-excellence surgical networks covering knee, hip, spine, heart, and oncology procedures, youth detention medical care, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories. The mismatch between the code's clinical nomenclature—naming a specific orthopedic hand surgery—and the actual procurement being conducted under it suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or use of this code as a catch-all for medical service categories without precise commodity alignment.

Activity appears across four states: Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara Health System), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries), and Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), plus Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department). Issuing bodies include city retirement boards, municipal human resources functions, state transportation agencies, county health systems, and county procurement offices. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 at $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance due October 9, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. The code shows no relevant recent procurement activity aligned to its stated scope.
