This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of nose with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach.

UNSPSC 85563418 Replacement of nose with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—surgical reconstruction of nasal structures using synthetic or donor tissue—bears no relation to the recent state and local procurement activity posted under this code. The opportunities indexed to this code span independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, and temporary health professional staffing across multiple clinical ancillary categories. None of these solicitations involve nasal reconstruction or tissue transplantation. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal health benefit administrators (Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county human resources divisions (Collier County), and county health systems (Santa Clara). The code shows no relevant recent activity.

The geographic spread of posting activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida, with no concentration in any single state. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP 26001 for independent medical evaluation services (RFP, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 maximum over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP, due October 9, 2026, pre-bid conference August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQHHSFY270052 for temporary health professional staffing (RFP, due October 7, 2026, multi-award qualification vehicle). The code classification mismatch suggests the taxonomy assignment does not reflect the actual procurement content and warrants verification against the appropriate medical services and staffing UNSPSC families.
