UNSPSC 85631017: Replacement of abdomen skin with autologous tissue substitute, partial thickness, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of abdomen skin with autologous tissue substitute, partial thickness, external 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 0HR7X74

UNSPSC 85631017 Replacement of abdomen skin with autologous tissue substitute, partial thickness, external approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope—a surgical procedure for skin grafting—and the state and local procurement activity actually tagged to it. The recent opportunities solicited under this code do not involve tissue replacement or reconstructive surgery at all; instead, they reflect healthcare administration, occupational medicine surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing services. The code appears to have been misapplied or auto-tagged to unrelated healthcare procurements, making it an unreliable indicator of what state and local governments are actually buying under this designation.

The geographic spread of recent activity spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County), with no meaningful concentration in any region. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry terminals (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for a surgical Centers of Excellence carve-out program for its PPO plan (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members (258414, effective January 1, 2026). Given that the code's nominal scope does not align with any of these solicitations, firms pursuing healthcare contracts should verify that opportunities are tagged to appropriate codes before relying on this designation for pipeline development or competitive intelligence.
