UNSPSC 85593813: Revision of autologous tissue substitute in upper intestinal tract, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of autologous tissue substitute in upper intestinal tract, 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 0DW007Z

UNSPSC 85593813 Revision of autologous tissue substitute in upper intestinal tract, open approach is a Commodity code that does not match the scope of recent state and local procurement activity posted under it. The code's nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure—revision of autologous tissue grafts in the upper intestine—but the recent opportunities tagged under this code span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs for Centers of Excellence, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these solicitations involve autologous tissue revision or upper intestinal procedures. The mismatch suggests either a systematic miscoding issue in the state and local procurement systems, or that the code is being used as a catch-all for broader healthcare and medical services that do not align with the code's description.

Activity under this code is geographically dispersed across Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County), with issuing bodies including city retirement offices, city human resources departments, state transportation agencies, county health systems, and county juvenile justice departments. Recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP 26001 for independent medical evaluation services ($750,000 over five years, due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry terminals (due October 9, 2026), the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQHHSFY270052 for a multiple-award qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing including audiology, diagnostic imaging, and surgical services (due October 7, 2026), and Collier County's RFP 25-8414 for pharmacy benefit management covering 2,400 employees with historical annual pharmacy spending of $8.7 million (due April 9, 2026). The mismatch between code and opportunity scope suggests that pursuing contracts under this code requires direct confirmation with issuers about actual scope, rather than relying on the UNSPSC taxonomy alone.
