UNSPSC 85714844 Extirpation of matter from left temporomandibular joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows a mismatch between its nominal surgical scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The source contains no solicitations for the medical procedure the code nominally describes; instead, the tagged opportunities span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs for public employees, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these activities—which cover administrative medical services, staffing, and benefits design rather than surgical intervention on the temporomandibular joint—align with the code's stated procedure. The issuing bodies include state health systems (Washington State Ferries medical surveillance, County of Santa Clara temporary staffing), county human resources and pension boards (City of Phoenix retirement pension evaluations, Collier County pharmacy benefits, Harris County juvenile detention medical services), and municipal benefits offices (City of Long Beach employee surgical benefits). This represents a diverse issuing-body mix spanning state transportation, county healthcare and human resources functions, and municipal employee benefits administration.

Recent activity concentrates in California (Santa Clara County, Long Beach), Arizona (City of Phoenix), Washington (WSDOT ferries), and Texas (Harris County), with responses due or due in the near term—Santa Clara and Long Beach both with October 7 responses, Washington State Ferries with October 9, and Phoenix with October 16, 2026. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services ($750,000 maximum over five years) supporting public safety pension disability determinations due October 16, the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive staffing qualification vehicle due October 7 covering 13 ancillary health professional categories, and the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP with pre-bid conference August 31 covering four employee categories across 14 ferry terminals statewide. The code shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope.
