UNSPSC 85802213 Removal of other device on left inguinal region is a Commodity code with no recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its nominal medical device scope. The opportunities tagged under this code reflect substantial misalignment: the dataset contains staffing services for medically fragile students, virtual urgent care delivery, dialysis services for corrections facilities, laboratory instrument maintenance, DOT medical physicals, youth rehabilitation services, EMT staffing, preemployment physicals, occupational health surveillance, drug screening and testing, phlebotomy and courier services, blood product distribution, water testing, histology services, fire inspector billing, and clinical laboratory testing across occupational health, public health, corrections, mental health, and skilled nursing contexts—none of which involve removal of surgical devices from the left inguinal region or the procedure-specific work the code's name implies. The jurisdictions issuing these opportunities span state health and human services agencies (Illinois, Texas, Michigan, Kentucky, Nevada), county public health and corrections departments (Hillsborough, Escambia, San Mateo, Harris, Brevard, Collin, Rockland, Santa Clara, Forsyth, Boulder, Monroe), cities (Austin, Tucson, Arlington, Newark), school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools, Northside Independent School District, Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City ISD), transit authorities (Dallas Area Rapid Transit), and specialized authorities (Inland Empire Health Plan, Integral Care).

The code shows no actual procurement signal for surgical device removal services and appears to be a taxonomy mismatch artifact. State and local buyers under tags proximate to this code pursue clinical laboratory services (Illinois DHS, Texas HHSC, Kentucky Veterans Affairs, Nevada Purchasing, County of Santa Clara), occupational health screening and medical surveillance (Hillsborough County, Escambia County Corrections, City of Austin, Forsyth County, WSDOT, Trophy Club Fire Department), staffing for health professionals and EMTs (Boulder County Sheriff's Office, Hillsborough County Public Schools through AB Staffing Solutions RFQ due December 2, 2025; Inland Empire Health Plan RFI due October 31, 2026), and specialty testing including drug screening, phlebotomy, and dialysis support (Escambia County Corrections RFP 2607426 due November 3, 2026 for onsite dialysis; Illinois Department of Human Services IFB B-54074 for laboratory services due September 30, 2026 with $700,000 annual estimated value). No procurement activity targeting surgical procedures or medical device removal is evident. Unless state and local bodies are systematically miscoding procedural services under this device code, the category warrants deprioritization pending evidence of genuine procedure-specific demand.
