UNSPSC 85725236 Removal of synthetic substitute from coccygeal joint, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that carries a procedural medical taxonomy label but does not align with the state and local contracting activity posted under it. Recent opportunities tagged to this code include independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing pools, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve orthopedic joint procedures or synthetic implant removal. The issuing bodies reflect a mix of municipalities, counties, state departments, and public health systems: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, the City of Long Beach, the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and the County of Santa Clara Health System. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual solicitation content suggests either a systematic taxonomy coding error at the source or an artifact of broad medical-services categorization that does not reflect the work being procured.

The geographic distribution of recent activity spans Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), Washington (statewide ferries operations), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services to support disability pension determinations for approximately 75 annual applications, due October 16, 2026, and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations in Washington, due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026. Pursuing firms should note that this code shows little relevant recent activity for its stated commodity description and treat the current opportunities as misfiled medical-administration and occupational-health work rather than orthopedic implant removal.
