UNSPSC 85631349 Replacement of left hand skin with nonautologous tissue substitute, partial thickness, external approach is a Commodity code showing no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The six most recent opportunities posted under this code across state and local jurisdictions are disability medical evaluations (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), surgical benefit carve-out programs (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Department of Transportation), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and temporary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara Health System). None of these solicitations involve skin replacement procedures, surgical reconstruction, or tissue substitutes of any kind; they address health plan administration, occupational health screening, clinical staffing placement, and detention facility medical services. The code's nominal scope—replacement of left hand skin with nonautologous tissue substitute—does not align with the work state and local governments are actually buying under this designation.

The mismatch between code name and recent opportunity content suggests either a systematic coding error in the state and local procurement systems submitting these opportunities, or that 85631349 has been misapplied to administrative health services and benefit management work that belongs in a different UNSPSC family. Practitioners evaluating this code should treat it as dormant for actual tissue replacement or surgical reconstruction procurement and investigate whether relevant state and local skin or tissue repair opportunities are filed under a different code or family.
