UNSPSC 85723844 Removal of internal fixation device from left hip joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal medical procedure scope. The six most recent opportunities posted under this code are mislabeled: they span independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational health surveillance, juvenile detention medical services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve orthopedic implant removal or procedural surgery coding. State and local buyers do not appear to use this code to solicit surgical services or implant removal; the mismatch between the code's clinical definition and the actual work being purchased suggests either systematic tagging error in the source system or that this code is not the active procurement vehicle for surgical procedure contracts.

No decision-relevant recent opportunities exist under this code's intended scope. Business development professionals evaluating state and local opportunities in surgical services, orthopedic procedures, or medical device removal should search alternative code families within the medical service segments rather than track activity under this Commodity code.
