UNSPSC 85631638: Replacement of scalp 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 scalp 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 0HR0XJ3

UNSPSC 85631638 Replacement of scalp skin with synthetic substitute, full thickness, external approach is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it show little alignment with surgical skin grafting or replacement procedures. Instead, the posted solicitations span occupational and disability medical evaluation services, surgical benefit management for government employee health plans, pharmacy benefit administration, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which match the code's nominal scope of dermatological or reconstructive surgery. The code does not map meaningfully to the work actually being solicited by state and local procurement offices at present.

The issuing bodies in the recent activity include city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), city human resources departments (City of Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems and procurement divisions (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, County of Santa Clara), and specialized public-sector health consortiums. The geographic spread includes Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a proposal due date of October 16, 2026 and a maximum contract value of $750,000 over five years; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations with a proposal due date of October 9, 2026 and a pre-bid conference on August 31, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQ for a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories with a proposal due date of October 7, 2026. The code shows material recent activity volume, but the posted opportunities do not involve surgical skin replacement, reconstructive grafting, or related tissue-replacement procedures.
