UNSPSC 85765021 Removal of infusion device from retroperitoneum, open approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the kinds of work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local opportunities. The code's nominal scope refers to a surgical procedure, but the opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefit programs for municipal employee health plans, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for youth in custody. These solicitations address healthcare administration, benefits consulting, staffing placement, and occupational health compliance rather than a specific surgical intervention. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal human resources departments (Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county probation departments (Harris County), county commissioners' offices (Collier County), and county health systems (Santa Clara County).

Recent activity spans multiple states including Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, covering disability medical record summaries and physician examination coordination for approximately 75 annual pension applications across a five-year term not to exceed $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026, requiring board-certified occupational medicine physicians to conduct baseline and periodic examinations across 14 ferry system locations statewide; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive, multiple-award qualification RFQ for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026, establishing a vendor pool across 13 ancillary clinical specialties. The code shows recent activity but carries a significant taxonomy mismatch — the posted opportunities are not surgical-procedure procurements and do not align with the code's stated scope.
