UNSPSC 85581210: Supplement lower lip with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement lower lip with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous 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 0CU13KZ

UNSPSC 85581210 Supplement lower lip with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal clinical scope — a specific oral surgical procedure — and the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The recent solicitations captured under this code include occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations, temporary health professional staffing, surgery benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these activities involve lip augmentation or tissue supplementation procedures. The code appears to be misapplied in state and local procurement systems to broader healthcare services and medical administration rather than to the specific surgical intervention its name describes.

Recent activity spans multiple issuing bodies — county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix), city human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), and county benefits administration (Collier County). Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with responses due between September and October 2026. The mismatch between code intent and actual procurement makes this code unreliable for targeting opportunities in oral surgical procedures or tissue banking. Business development professionals should verify that opportunities actually tagged to this code align with their service capability before investing pursuit resources; the code's current assignment to medical staffing, benefits administration, and occupational health services suggests systematic miscoding in the posting systems rather than genuine demand under the code's stated commodity.
