About UNSPSC 85641836

UNSPSC 85641836 Replacement of right upper arm subcutaneous tissue and fascia with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code for a specific surgical procedure, yet recent state and local procurement activity shows minimal alignment with this code's nominal scope. The six recent opportunities posted under this code — ranging from independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, to surgical carve-out benefits for municipal health plans, occupational medical surveillance for state ferries, and temporary health professional staffing — do not match surgical reconstruction of upper extremity soft tissue. The code appears to have been applied as a catch-all or administrative tag for health and medical services procurement rather than for the specific procedure the code name describes. State and local governments tagging opportunities under this code are sourcing administrative medical services (record review, scheduling, examination), workplace occupational health monitoring, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary clinical staffing across multiple specialties — none of which constitutes the surgical procedure the code nominally covers.

The issuing bodies are diverse: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. Representative opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026 ($750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance due October 9, 2026, and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award vehicle for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026. The code shows no recent activity genuinely targeting surgical reconstruction, and vendors pursuing work under this code should verify the actual scope with issuing bodies before proposal investment, as the code's application appears inconsistent with its procedure-specific definition.
