UNSPSC 85632443: Insertion of tissue expander into right nipple, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of tissue expander into right nipple, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic. 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 0HHW8NZ

UNSPSC 85632443 Insertion of tissue expander into right nipple, via natural or artificial opening endoscopic is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure code—does not align with the work actually being solicited by state and local buyers posting under this code. Recent opportunities tagged to this code include independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension boards, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, surgical benefits carve-out programs for city employees, temporary health professional staffing pools for county health systems, and emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth. None of these solicitations involve tissue expanders or the particular endoscopic procedure the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the source opportunities or that this code is not being used consistently to tag relevant medical-service procurement by state and local governments.

The geographic spread of opportunities spans Arizona, California, Washington State, Florida, and Texas, with issuing bodies including municipal retirement offices, county health systems, state transportation departments, county juvenile justice departments, and city human resources divisions. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ for a temporary health professional staffing vendor pool (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Given the lack of alignment between the code's stated scope and the work actually being procured, vendors should verify correct code classification before committing resources to opportunities tagged under this number.
