This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of tissue expander into right upper arm 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 0JHD0NZ

UNSPSC 85641949 Insertion of tissue expander into right upper arm subcutaneous tissue and fascia, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specific surgical procedure—does not align with the recent state and local opportunities tagged to it. The opportunities instead center on occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty healthcare services for detained youth. None of these services involves tissue expander insertion or surgical procedures matching the code's description. The mismatch suggests either a data tagging error or that state and local procurement offices are using this code to classify a broader range of occupational and administrative health services that fall outside its literal scope.

The recent opportunities span multiple issuing bodies including the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (RFP for disability medical evaluations due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach (RFP for surgical benefit carve-out administration due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries (RFP for occupational medical surveillance due October 9, 2026), Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (RFI for emergency and specialty medical services, due September 25, 2026), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (RFP for pharmacy benefit management due April 9, 2026, now closed), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (RFQ for temporary health professional staffing due October 7, 2026). Activity is concentrated in California, Arizona, Washington, Florida, and Texas. Given the apparent misalignment between the code's literal definition and the work actually being purchased, firms evaluating this code should confirm scope alignment with individual issuing bodies before pursuing opportunities tagged to UNSPSC 85641949.
