UNSPSC 85641865: Removal of synthetic substitute from upper extremity subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from upper extremity subcutaneous tissue and fascia, 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 0JPV0JZ

UNSPSC 85641865 Removal of synthetic substitute from upper extremity subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal medical procedure scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The three posted opportunities citing this code — from Phoenix, Long Beach, Washington State, and Harris County — solicit occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out networks, pharmacy benefit management, emergency/specialty care for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations directly procure the surgical removal procedure the code nominally describes.

Geographic activity spans Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas (Harris County), but the code itself shows little recent relevant purchasing activity under its stated commodity definition. State and local procurement offices have not recently tagged removal-of-synthetic-substitute procedures as discrete line items or service categories in published RFPs, RFQs, or ITBs. The mismatch suggests either that this code is rarely applied to state and local purchasing, or that health systems and jurisdictions procuring such services classify them under different UNSPSC codes. Business development professionals should verify whether opportunities genuinely requiring this specific surgical procedure capability are being posted under alternative codes or whether state and local demand for this work is currently minimal.
