UNSPSC 85652329: Supplement right neck muscle with autologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right neck muscle with autologous tissue substitute, 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 0KU207Z

UNSPSC 85652329 Supplement right neck muscle with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and the actual medical and healthcare procurement activity currently posted by state and local governments. Recent opportunities tagged under this code do not involve surgical procedures or tissue supplementation; instead, they span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-outs, temporary clinical staffing, and youth detention medical services. The issuing bodies include county health systems, state transportation departments, municipal pension boards, county commissioners' offices, and county juvenile probation departments—a broad set of local healthcare and human-services purchasers. The code's clinical specificity (neck muscle supplementation via autologous tissue) does not map to the generalist and administrative medical services being solicited.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Washington (occupational medical surveillance), Arizona (disability medical evaluations), California (Long Beach surgical benefits and Santa Clara temporary staffing), Florida (Collier County pharmacy benefit management), and Texas (Harris County youth detention medical services). Washington State Department of Transportation's Washington State Ferries is seeking occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry terminals, with proposals due October 9, 2026; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office is soliciting disability medical record summary and independent medical evaluation services for approximately 75 annual pension disability applications, with proposals due October 16, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System is establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical specialties, with proposals due October 7, 2026. The code appears to be a mis-tagging artifact; vendors pursuing state and local medical services contracts should validate code assignment against actual scope-of-work descriptions rather than relying on the nominal UNSPSC title alone.
