UNSPSC 85641826: Replacement of left lower arm subcutaneous tissue and fascia with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left lower arm subcutaneous tissue and fascia with synthetic 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 0JRH0JZ

UNSPSC 85641826 Replacement of left lower arm subcutaneous tissue and fascia with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevance to actual state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure for limb reconstruction, yet the recent opportunities tagged to it span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency/specialty medical services for youth in custody. None of these solicitations involve prosthetic or reconstructive surgery for lower-arm tissue replacement. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding or a data classification error rather than legitimate procurement aligned with the code's stated scope.

The recent opportunities instead reflect state and local government's actual purchasing in occupational health services, benefits administration, and clinical staffing. Issuing bodies include a state department of transportation (Washington State Ferries), city retirement boards (Phoenix), cities managing employee benefits (Long Beach), a county juvenile justice system (Harris County), a regional health system (Santa Clara), and county human resources divisions (Collier County). Geographic concentration spans Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations (due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry terminals (due October 9, 2026 with pre-bid August 31), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing (due October 7, 2026). The code itself does not appear to drive meaningful procurement activity in state and local markets.
