UNSPSC 85581120: Replacement of lower gingiva with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of lower gingiva with nonautologous 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 0CR60KZ

UNSPSC 85581120, Replacement of lower gingiva with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach (Commodity), does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are buying under this code. The recent state and local opportunities posted against this code span independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical carve-out networks — none of which align with the code's nominal scope of periodontal tissue grafting procedures. This mismatch suggests either a systematic mis-tagging issue in the procurement systems generating these postings or a narrowly specialized code attracting unrelated health services solicitations.

State and local issuing bodies posting under this code include county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System), county retirement boards (City of Phoenix Retirement Office on behalf of pension boards), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Collier County, Harris County), and cities (City of Long Beach). Recent activity concentrates in Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with representative opportunities including the City of Phoenix's RFP for independent medical evaluation services ($750,000 over five years, due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry system locations (due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid on August 31), the County of Santa Clara's solicitation for a temporary health professional staffing vendor pool (due October 7, 2026), and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services (approximately $8.7 million annually, due April 9, 2026). Given the commodity code's mismatch with posted opportunities, verify issuer intent or code assignment before investing bid resources.
