UNSPSC 85641828 Replacement of right lower arm subcutaneous tissue and fascia with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that nominal taxonomy associates with orthopedic surgical procedures; however, recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to this code show no alignment with surgical tissue replacement. Instead, issuing bodies are soliciting medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, occupational health surveillance, and temporary clinical staffing—none of which match the specific procedural scope the code name describes. The code shows a fundamental mismatch between its nominal definition and actual state and local procurement activity, suggesting either miscoding by issuing bodies or that the code is being applied to broader healthcare administration and staffing services outside its intended surgical scope. State and local buyers under this code include county health systems, municipal retirement offices, state transportation departments, county juvenile probation authorities, and county boards of commissioners.

Recent opportunities span Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington.
