UNSPSC 85631304: Replacement of finger nail with nonautologous tissue substitute, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of finger nail with nonautologous tissue substitute, 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 0HRQXKZ

UNSPSC 85631304, Replacement of finger nail with nonautologous tissue substitute, external approach, is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical or medical procedure—the replacement of a fingernail using non-autologous tissue—but the six recent opportunities posted under this code do not reflect procurement of that service or related podiatric or dermatological procedures. Instead, the opportunities solicited medical surveillance services, independent medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, specialty surgical networks for Centers of Excellence, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these scopes involve fingernail replacement or tissue substitutes. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or that the code is being used as a placeholder classification for broader medical services procurement that does not map to the code's substantive scope.

The recent opportunities span state health and human services departments, county governments, and municipal benefits offices across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with no repeat issuer appearing more than once in the block. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP for ferry system workers across 14 locations (due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive qualified-vendor solicitation for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). The absence of relevant fingernail-replacement or podiatric-procedure procurement means this code does not reflect active state and local market activity in its stated commodity area and should be deprioritized for business development targeting.
