UNSPSC 85721887 Supplement right tarsal joint with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal surgical-procedure scope. The recent opportunities posted under this code are instead for occupational and disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management administration, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention healthcare coordination — none of which involve orthopedic implant procurement or tarsal joint procedures. The mismatch suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or a systematic disconnect between the code's product description and state and local procurement practice under it.

The six opportunities on file span three states — Arizona (Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Florida (Collier County), and Washington (Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries) — with issuing bodies including county government (Collier, Harris), municipal government (Long Beach), state agency (Washington DOT), health authority (Santa Clara Health System), and public pension administration (Phoenix Retirement Office). The opportunities include independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations (RFP, due October 16, 2026), surgical benefit carve-out program management (RFP, due October 7, 2026), occupational medical surveillance across ferry terminal locations (RFP, due October 9, 2026 with pre-bid August 31), an RFI for emergency and specialty care within juvenile detention (due September 25, 2026), pharmacy benefit management for county employees (RFP, due April 9, 2026), and temporary clinical staffing across ancillary categories (RFP, due October 7, 2026). Because none of these opportunities involve surgical implant procurement, tarsal joint procedures, or orthopedic device supply, the code appears inactive for its stated commodity scope.
