UNSPSC 85581219: Replacement of upper gingiva with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of upper gingiva 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 0CR53KZ

UNSPSC 85581219 Replacement of upper gingiva with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure involving gingival tissue replacement, but state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code do not align with that scope. Recent solicitations under the code target occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, surgical procedure carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which involve gingival or periodontal procedures. The mismatch between the code's stated description and what is actually being procured suggests either a classification error in how opportunities are being tagged or that the code itself is not the appropriate UNSPSC designation for these health services.

The issuing bodies include county commissioners' offices (Collier County, Harris County, Santa Clara County), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), city retirement boards (City of Phoenix), and municipal procurement offices (City of Long Beach). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no clear concentration in any single state. Representative opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026, targeting examinations across 14 Washington ferry locations; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026 with a $750,000 maximum contract value over five years; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive qualified-vendor pool RFP for temporary ancillary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. Because the code's nominal scope does not match the work described in recent opportunities, business development professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before pursuing activity under this designation.
