UNSPSC 85672223: Supplement left knee bursa and ligament with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left knee bursa and ligament with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0MUP47Z

UNSPSC 85672223 Supplement left knee bursa and ligament with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local procurement activity currently being solicited under this designation. The recent opportunities posted against this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out networks, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve orthopedic surgical procedures or tissue supplementation. The code appears to be a clinical procedure classification that state and local procurement offices are misapplying to administrative health services, benefits management, and staffing contracts.

The issuing bodies include a state department of transportation (Washington State Department of Transportation), county governments (Harris County, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and cities (Phoenix, Long Beach), reflecting broad geographic spread across the Pacific Northwest, Southwest, Southeast, and California. The recent opportunities show no pattern of actual procurement for the orthopedic surgical intervention named in the code. Absent evidence that state and local governments are sourcing knee bursa and ligament supplementation services or autologous tissue substitutes as a line of business, this code presents no actionable purchasing activity.
