UNSPSC 85642453: Alteration of left upper leg subcutaneous tissue and fascia, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to alteration of left upper leg subcutaneous tissue and fascia, 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 0J0M3ZZ

UNSPSC 85642453 Alteration of left upper leg subcutaneous tissue and fascia, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, does not align with what state and local governments are actually procuring under this classification. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure on subcutaneous tissue and fascia of the upper leg, yet the recent opportunities tagged to this code reflect procurement of occupational health surveillance services, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgery carve-out benefit programs, and emergency medical services for youth detention—none of which involve the surgical procedure the code nominally names. This represents a fundamental mismatch between the code's procedural specificity and the scope of work actually being solicited under it in state and local markets.

The recent opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies—county health systems (Santa Clara County), county benefits offices (Collier County, Harris County), city retirement and benefits agencies (City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach), and state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation)—across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Activity spans medical record summarization and disability evaluations, occupational medical surveillance, PBM administration, temporary clinical staffing placement, surgical benefit carve-outs, and emergency services contracting, with posted deadlines concentrated between August and October 2026. The code shows little relevant recent activity for firms pursuing surgical-procedure-specific opportunities; the tagging appears to reflect administrative or taxonomic error rather than genuine market demand for the narrow service the code describes.
