UNSPSC 85721235 Removal of infusion device from left tarsal joint, external approach is a Commodity code whose title does not align with state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. The recent opportunities block shows no solicitations for orthopedic surgical procedures or infusion-device removal. Instead, the code appears to be assigned to requests for occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent disability medical evaluations, and surgical procedure carve-out benefit programs — work that spans occupational health compliance, employee benefits administration, workforce medical staffing, and specialty medical care coordination rather than direct surgical intervention on specific anatomical sites. This mismatch signals that the code carries little relevant recent activity or that state and local procurement systems are applying it to work substantially outside its nominal scope.

The issuing bodies across the recent opportunities include county boards of county commissioners (Collier County), county health systems (Santa Clara County), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), and city retirement offices and municipal health benefit administrators (Phoenix, Long Beach). Geographic activity centers on California (Santa Clara, Long Beach, Collier County), Arizona (Phoenix), Washington (WSDOT), and Texas (Harris County). Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026) encompassing medical record summary and disability medical examination coordination for pension applications; the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories including audiology, cardiology, diagnostic imaging, and surgical services (due October 7, 2026). The code does not appear to support a coherent procurement category in current state and local practice.
