UNSPSC 85723430, Removal of infusion device from left knee joint, open approach, is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual scope of state and local procurement activity associated with it. Recent opportunities posted under this code show little substantive alignment with orthopedic surgical procedures; instead, they span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, Centers of Excellence surgical carve-outs, and emergency medical services for detained youth. The code appears to be a miscategorization artifact in state and local procurement systems rather than a reliable signal of active buying within a coherent product or service family. Issuing bodies include county human resources divisions, state transportation departments, county health systems, county juvenile justice authorities, and city retirement offices—a fragmented mix of health benefit, occupational safety, and clinical services functions that bear no clear relationship to the code's nominal definition.

The geographic spread of recorded activity spans Arizona (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services (RFP, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation RFP20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferries locations (RFP, due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System RFSQHHSFY270052 for temporary health professional staffing qualification (RFP, due October 7, 2026). The code shows activity but no coherent procurement pattern; parties evaluating this code should verify category alignment with specific opportunities rather than rely on the nominal code definition.
