This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of nasal turbinate with autologous tissue substitute, open approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 09RL07Z

UNSPSC 85562628, Replacement of nasal turbinate with autologous tissue substitute, open approach, is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal surgical scope. The six recent opportunities tagged to this code—independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for government employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—are healthcare administration, benefits management, and occupational health contracting rather than nasal turbinate surgery or any otolaryngologic procedure. The code appears to be a data-tagging anomaly rather than a meaningful procurement category for state and local buyers.

No state or local government solicitations under this code align with the procedure named. The issuing bodies active in the recent opportunities block—the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, and Santa Clara County Health System—are purchasing health plan administration, occupational health programs, and clinical staffing services, not surgical procedures. Vendors evaluating this code should treat it as inactive for procurement purposes and monitor related codes under health services delivery or employee health benefit administration instead.
