UNSPSC 85581607: Supplement hard palate with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement hard palate 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 0CU23KZ

UNSPSC 85581607 Supplement hard palate with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it bear no relationship to surgical hard palate repair. Instead, the code shows substantial recent activity spanning occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, specialty surgical carve-outs for employee health plans, emergency and specialty medical services in correctional settings, and temporary health professional staffing. The issuing bodies range across state transportation departments, county human resources and procurement offices, county health systems, cities managing employee benefits and pension boards, and county juvenile justice agencies. This mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual procurement activity suggests either systematic misclassification by issuing bodies or a data-taxonomy alignment issue; the opportunities listed are authentic recent solicitations but do not reflect hard palate surgical procedures.

Recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP 20260825, due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's procurement of independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations totaling $750,000 over five years (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach's solicitation for surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits through Centers of Excellence for approximately 3,800 enrolled employees (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 7,200 covered members with historical annual spending near $8.7 million (RFP 25-8414, due April 9, 2026). Activity is concentrated in California, Arizona, Washington, and Florida. Given the absence of relevant recent opportunities under the code's stated scope, this code does not represent an actionable procurement category for hard palate surgical services in the state and local market as currently classified.
