This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of scalp skin with nonautologous tissue substitute, full thickness, external approach.

UNSPSC 85631635 Replacement of scalp skin with nonautologous tissue substitute, full thickness, external approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its stated clinical scope. The six recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to this code involve independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, specialty and emergency medical services for youth in custody, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which align with scalp skin replacement procedures or tissue substitute work. The mismatch suggests either systematic tagging misalignment or opportunistic use of an available code number by procurement offices unfamiliar with UNSPSC's medical-procedure specificity.

The issuing bodies span a mix of city retirement systems, county health authorities, state transportation departments, and county juvenile justice agencies across Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas. Recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (response due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out programs (response due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (response due October 9, 2026). If procurement activity under this code reflects actual need for scalp skin replacement services or tissue-substitute procurement, the source does not support it. Business development professionals should verify the code's relevance to their service or product line before pursuing opportunities tagged to this Commodity code.
