UNSPSC 85582626: Replacement of soft palate with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of soft palate with autologous 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 0CR337Z

UNSPSC 85582626 (Replacement of soft palate with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach), a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent activity under state and local government procurement. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the six most recent state and local opportunities tagged under it actually solicit occupational medical surveillance services, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing pools, and youth detention medical services — none of which involve soft palate replacement or autologous tissue substitutes. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the underlying procurement records or that the code has been applied to health-benefit and occupational-health administration services rather than the procedure itself.

The issuing bodies in the recent-opportunities block span diverse jurisdictions: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (pension disability medical evaluations), City of Long Beach (surgical procedure carve-outs for municipal employees), Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), and County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary ancillary health professional staffing). Geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Washington, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Phoenix Fire Pension Board and Phoenix Police Pension Board RFP (RTMRFP26001, proposals due October 16, 2026) for independent medical evaluation services totaling up to $750,000 over five years, and the Washington State Ferries RFP (RFP20260825, proposals due October 9, 2026) for occupational medical surveillance across 14 Washington locations. The code's weak alignment with the work actually being solicited makes it an unreliable indicator of health services procurement activity at the state and local level.
