UNSPSC 85631628: Replacement of face skin with nonautologous tissue substitute, full thickness, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of face skin with nonautologous tissue 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 0HR1XK3

UNSPSC 85631628 Replacement of face skin with nonautologous tissue substitute, full thickness, external approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal medical procedure scope and the state and local contract opportunities currently posted under it. The recent solicitations tagged to this code predominantly address occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluation administration, employee health benefits management, temporary clinical staffing placement, pharmacy benefit administration, and youth detention healthcare coordination—none of which involve reconstructive or burn wound treatment with tissue substitutes. The code's abstract name describes a specific surgical intervention; the actual state and local activity tracked under it spans medical services administration, benefits management, and workforce staffing across diverse public sector customers including county health systems, municipal retirement offices, state transportation departments, and county probation authorities.

Activity under this code appears concentrated in western and southwestern jurisdictions. Recent solicitations originate from the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance for ferry system workers across 14 Washington locations, proposals due October 9, 2026), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical evaluation coordination for public safety pension boards, proposals due October 16, 2026 at $750,000 over five years), the City of Long Beach (surgical procedure carve-out benefit design for municipal employees, proposals due October 7, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, responses due September 25, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members, proposals due April 9, 2026 with approximately $8.7 million in historical annual spend), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary ancillary clinical staffing across multiple categories including audiology, cardiology, respiratory care, and surgical services, proposals due October 7, 2026). The mismatch between the Commodity code's surgical procedure definition and the administrative and staffing services dominating posted opportunities suggests either a data classification error or that this code has been applied broadly to state and local health services procurement regardless of specificity.
