UNSPSC 85721359 Revision of spacer in right tarsal joint, open approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its clinical procedural title and the state and local opportunities recently posted under it. The recent solicitations reflect health administration, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing services — none of which correspond to orthopedic surgical procedures or device implantation. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office, Washington State Department of Transportation, City of Long Beach, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and County of Santa Clara Health System are the issuing bodies appearing in recent postings; these span state agencies, counties, and municipal health systems. The geographic spread includes Arizona, Washington, California, Texas, and Florida.

Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services (RFP, due October 16, 2026), which sought medical record summaries and disability benefit examination coordination at $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations (RFP, due October 9, 2026); the City of Long Beach's RFP HR26753 for a surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefit program (RFP, due October 7, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQHHSFY270052 for a qualified vendor pool in temporary health professional staffing (RFP, due October 7, 2026). The code appears to be misclassified for the work state and local entities are actually soliciting and does not reflect meaningful procurement activity aligned with its stated clinical scope.
