UNSPSC 85631957: Replacement of right breast with autologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right breast with autologous tissue substitute, open 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 0HRT07Z

UNSPSC 85631957 Replacement of right breast with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code encompass occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical center-of-excellence networks, and emergency medical services for youth in custody—none of which align with the specific surgical procedure named in the code's title. The mismatch between the code's clinical scope and the purchasing activity it is capturing suggests either systematic miscoding in state and local procurement systems or that this Commodity code is not actively used for direct procurement of breast reconstruction services by state, county, municipal, or special-purpose health authorities.

The recent opportunities do reflect broader patterns in state and local health administration: pension boards and city retirement offices purchasing independent medical evaluations and disability benefit support services; county health systems and cities procuring staffing and managed-care intermediaries; and transportation and detention authorities acquiring occupational or emergency medical services through RFP and RFQ processes. However, none of these purchasing activities correspond to surgical procedure procurement under the code as stated. Firms pursuing work in this Commodity code should verify current coding practice with target procurement offices or search under alternative UNSPSC codes related to medical staffing, health professional services, or healthcare management rather than assuming active solicitations exist under 85631957.
