UNSPSC 85723216 Replacement of right knee joint, femoral surface with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code. The recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show little alignment with its nominal scope—orthopedic surgical procedure terminology—and instead reflect procurement activity in occupational and disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out programs. The issuing bodies include municipal pension offices, county health systems, state transportation departments, county juvenile probation departments, and county benefits consortia. The work being solicited under this code does not center on joint replacement procedures themselves but rather on medical record review and disability determinations, occupational health surveillance, specialty care network management, and temporary clinical staffing. This tag mismatch suggests the code is being applied to procurement activity outside its intended commodity boundary.

Recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Washington State, Florida, and Texas. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) to support disability benefit determinations for fire and police pension applicants, with a five-year contract ceiling of $750,000.

The County of Santa Clara Health System opened a non-exclusive qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) across 13 ancillary clinical categories excluding nursing and physicians.
