UNSPSC 85631029: Replacement of chest skin with synthetic substitute, partial thickness, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of chest skin with synthetic 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 0HR5XJ4

UNSPSC 85631029 Replacement of chest skin with synthetic substitute, partial thickness, external approach is a Commodity code that does not map to the state and local procurement activity presently tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code—independent medical evaluations for pension-board disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, juvenile detention healthcare services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—involve health plan administration, occupational medicine, clinical staffing coordination, and benefit program management. None of these solicitations concern surgical replacement of chest skin or synthetic skin substitutes. The code's nominal scope appears to reflect clinical procedure classification rather than state and local purchasing categories, creating a fundamental taxonomy mismatch.

The issuing bodies tagged under this code span municipal pension offices (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), municipal human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice authorities (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county health systems (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara Health System), and county probation departments. The geographic range includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Because the code's label does not align with the actual work being procured, the opportunities appear to be misclassified rather than representative of a coherent procurement category. No activity explicitly involving surgical skin replacement products or services appears in the recent-opportunities block.
