UNSPSC 85631374: Replacement of right lower arm skin with synthetic substitute, full thickness, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right lower arm skin with synthetic substitute, full 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 0HRDXJ3

UNSPSC 85631374 Replacement of right lower arm skin with synthetic substitute, full thickness, external approach is a Commodity code that shows no material alignment between its nominal medical procedure scope and actual state and local procurement activity captured in recent solicitations. The code's title describes a specific surgical intervention, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, and pension-board medical record summarization—none of which involve dermatologic or reconstructive surgical procedures or synthetic skin replacement.

The mismatch between code taxonomy and purchasing reality reflects a tagging inconsistency rather than meaningful activity under the code's stated scope. Issuing bodies represented in the opportunities include a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and boards (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Santa Clara County Health System, Collier County), and city retirement offices (City of Phoenix). The opportunities posted August–September 2026 span Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with activity concentrated in larger metropolitan and regional healthcare procurement functions. No recent state or local solicitations for synthetic skin replacement or related reconstructive dermatology services appear in the available records. Business development professionals evaluating this code should verify that specific opportunities of interest carry the correct UNSPSC assignment before pursuing, as the code appears to function as a catch-all placeholder rather than a targeted procurement category for the stated procedure.
