UNSPSC 85724702, Removal of synthetic substitute from left sacroiliac joint, open approach, is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code are unrelated to joint replacement or surgical removal services and instead span occupational health surveillance, disability pension medical evaluations, health plan benefit administration, pharmacy management, and temporary clinical staffing placement.

The source contains no state and local solicitations for the orthopedic procedure the code purports to describe. The opportunities tagged under this code reflect a mismatch between the UNSPSC taxonomy assignment and the work being bought: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office is soliciting independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations; the Washington State Department of Transportation is requesting occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers; the City of Long Beach is seeking a surgical benefit carve-out and Center of Excellence network for employee health plans; Harris County Juvenile Probation Department is conducting an RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth; Collier County is procuring pharmacy benefit management services; and Santa Clara Health System is building a temporary health professional staffing vendor pool. No issuing body is soliciting procurement, contracting, or supply services related to sacroiliac joint replacement procedures or the removal of synthetic joint substitutes. This code does not show relevant recent activity for firms pursuing state and local medical device or orthopedic surgical services procurement.
