UNSPSC 85631969: Removal of tissue expander from left breast, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of tissue expander from left breast, 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 0HPU0NZ

UNSPSC 85631969 Removal of tissue expander from left breast, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal description does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The five recent opportunities on record span inmate medical and pharmacy services at a county correctional facility, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support services for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction—none of which involve surgical removal of breast tissue expanders. The code shows no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement.

The geographic distribution of tagged opportunities spans Florida (Collier County and Monroe County), Georgia (Muscogee County), California (San Mateo County), and California again (Santa Monica), but the substantive scope of work across these solicitations does not correspond to the code's surgical procedure classification. Issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners, a county health agency, a fire department, and a county behavioral health division. The mismatch between the code's clinical procedure scope and the health administration, care delivery management, and workforce support services actually being procured suggests either a data-entry error in the tagging system or a systematic miscoding of healthcare services under this surgical code. State and local procurement professionals evaluating this code should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before pursuing opportunities in correctional health, pharmacy benefit administration, virtual care platforms, or behavioral health support services.
