UNSPSC 85602842: Replacement of lesser omentum with autologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of lesser omentum with autologous 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 0DRT07Z

UNSPSC 85602842, Replacement of lesser omentum with autologous tissue substitute, open approach, is a Commodity code describing a surgical procedure, but recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code does not reflect surgical implant or tissue-replacement work; instead, the opportunities logged against it span occupational health surveillance, independent medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out networks, and temporary health professional staffing. The code shows little alignment between its nominal scope—a specific surgical technique—and the actual health services, evaluations, and staffing work state and local governments are buying today.

The recent opportunities span state departments, county health systems, cities, and county probation agencies across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no clear concentration. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (due October 9, 2026, across 14 ferry locations with occupational-medicine physicians), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation and disability record summarization services (due October 16, 2026, supporting public safety pension determinations at $750,000 over five years), the City of Long Beach's RFP for a surgical procedure carve-out benefit program covering knee, hip, spine, and oncology procedures through Centers of Excellence (due October 7, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The mismatch between code definition and procurement activity suggests this UNSPSC assignment reflects administrative classification drift rather than meaningful taxonomic alignment with surgical tissue-replacement work.
