UNSPSC 85642217: Replacement of right upper leg subcutaneous tissue and fascia with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right upper leg subcutaneous tissue and fascia with synthetic substitute, percutaneous 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 0JRL3JZ

UNSPSC 85642217, Replacement of right upper leg subcutaneous tissue and fascia with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure — a clinical intervention performed on a patient — and state and local government procurement offices do not solicit this service directly under this code. Recent opportunities tagged with this code actually concern occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans. These are administrative health services, benefits management, and vendor staffing arrangements, not the orthopedic tissue replacement procedure the code nominates.

The mismatch reflects tagging inconsistency rather than a genuine procurement opportunity. The three most recent opportunities with this code — the City of Phoenix's independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations (RFP due October 16, 2026 at $750,000 over five years), the City of Long Beach's surgical and medical procedure carve-out program for employee PPO benefits (RFP due October 7, 2026), and the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance services (RFP due October 9, 2026, pre-bid August 31, 2026) — involve benefits program administration and occupational health services, not surgical procedures matching the code's scope. This code shows little relevant recent activity under its stated definition.
