UNSPSC 85631944 Replacement of bilateral breast using deep inferior epigastric artery perforator flap, open approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its clinical procedural scope and actual state and local procurement activity. Recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code concern medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical carve-out programs — none of which involve reconstructive breast surgery procedures. The code appears to be applied inconsistently or incorrectly by issuing procurement offices, and state and local governments are not currently soliciting breast reconstruction surgical services under this designation.

The most recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical procedure carve-out benefits including orthopedic and cardiac services (due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department's RFI for emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (due September 25, 2026), Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services covering approximately 2,400 employees and 4,800 covered members (originally due April 9, 2026), and Santa Clara County Health System's multiple-award qualification pool for temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Given the clear divergence between the code's title and the services actually being purchased, vendors should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before pursuing opportunities posted under 85631944.
