UNSPSC 85602840: Replacement of lesser omentum with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of lesser omentum with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0DRT0KZ

UNSPSC 85602840 Replacement of lesser omentum with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure involving tissue replacement, but recent opportunities posted under this code across state and local jurisdictions concern occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, independent medical evaluations for disability determination, surgical benefit programs, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which align with the procedural tissue-replacement scope the code name implies.

The mismatch between the code's stated description and the work actually being solicited suggests either miscoding by issuing offices or a data classification issue within the taxonomy itself. Bidders pursuing state and local opportunities should verify the substantive scope directly in each RFP or RFQ rather than relying on the UNSPSC code alone, and may wish to flag this apparent misalignment with procurement offices before bid preparation to confirm accurate scope framing.
