UNSPSC 85723624 Drainage of right hip joint with drainage device, open approach is a Commodity code that represents a specific orthopedic surgical procedure. However, the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code do not involve the surgical procedure itself. Instead, the opportunities reflect a significant mismatch: they cover independent medical evaluation services, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans—none of which are orthopedic drainage procedures. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. State and local procurement activity in this code tier is not currently focused on the specific surgical intervention the code describes.

The few opportunities posted under this code span diverse issuing bodies and geographies. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office solicited independent medical evaluation services (RFP RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) for disability benefit determinations; the Washington State Department of Transportation sought occupational medical surveillance services (RFP RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) across 14 ferry locations; the City of Long Beach requested surgical benefit carve-out programs (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026) through Centers of Excellence; Collier County issued an RFP for pharmacy benefit management (RFP 25-8414); the County of Santa Clara Health System established a temporary health professional staffing qualified vendor list (due October 7, 2026); and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for specialty and emergency medical services (due September 25, 2026). The geographic spread includes Arizona, Washington, California, and Texas. Given the procedural nature of the code versus the administrative and clinical staffing work actually being solicited, business development professionals should verify code accuracy with issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities under this classification.
