UNSPSC 85715150 Removal of spacer from right temporomandibular joint, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not correspond to the medical services state and local governments are actually buying under current solicitations tagged with this code. The recent opportunities posted against this code comprise independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, occupational medical surveillance, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which involve temporomandibular joint procedures or surgical interventions as the code name suggests. State and local buyers posting under this code span diverse issuing bodies: municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), county governments (Harris County, Collier County), city employee health plans (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), and county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System).

Activity under this code is geographically dispersed across Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas, with recent solicitations including the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services covering 14 ferry system locations statewide with a two-year base term and optional five-year extension (proposals due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for disability medical record summary and independent medical examination services with $750,000 maximum compensation over five years (proposals due October 16, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation for a temporary health professional staffing qualified vendor pool across 13 ancillary clinical categories (proposals due October 7, 2026). The code shows recent activity but exhibits a clear taxonomy mismatch—state and local procurement offices are using it for general medical services administration and staffing rather than for the specific surgical procedure its name denotes.
