UNSPSC 85813805, Introduction of other therapeutic substance into bones, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its clinical descriptor and recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope describes a specific orthopedic medical procedure, yet the recent opportunities tagged under this code span telehealth services, nursing home operations, occupational health screening, employee wellness platforms, cancer registries, and opioid treatment initiatives—none of which involve percutaneous bone injection or orthopedic intervention. State and local issuing bodies using this code include health plans (Inland Empire Health Plan, California), state health authorities (Nevada Health Authority), county health systems and departments (DeKalb County Georgia; Santa Clara County California; San Mateo County California; Brevard County Florida), city departments (Phoenix, Atlanta, Ocala Florida), and special districts (Solano County California; Ventura County California; Rockland County New York; Jackson County Missouri). The geographic spread covers California, Georgia, Nevada, Florida, Arizona, Illinois, Texas, Oregon, and New York, with recent posting activity concentrated in western states and the Southeast.

Recent opportunities posted under this code bear no substantive relationship to orthopedic bone-injection procedures. Inland Empire Health Plan issued an RFI (October 16, 2026, due October 31, 2026) for virtual urgent care telehealth services; Nevada Health Authority issued RFPs for Program of All Inclusive Care for the Elderly operations (October 8, 2026, due December 10, 2026) and Rural Value Acceleration Network consulting (October 7, 2026, due November 30, 2026); San Mateo County issued solicitations for cancer registry services (October 5, 2026, due October 12, 2026) and handheld retinal screening devices (October 1, 2026, due November 6, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System sought travel nurse staffing (September 17, 2026, due January 6, 2027). The code shows little relevant recent activity; the mismatch between the code's clinical name and the actual work being procured suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or deprecation of this commodity designation in favor of broader service-family codes capturing behavioral health, occupational health, and integrated care delivery.
