UNSPSC 85672708: Supplement left thorax 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 thorax 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 0MUG47Z

UNSPSC 85672708 Supplement left thorax bursa and ligament with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code whose nominal taxonomy describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code reveal a fundamental mismatch: the code shows no relevant procurement activity for orthopedic or surgical implant materials, and instead the tagged solicitations address occupational medical surveillance, pension-board disability evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out benefits for employees, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these activities involve the procurement of tissue substitutes, implant devices, or surgical procedures themselves. The code appears to be misapplied to general health services procurement across multiple issuing bodies and procurement categories.

The recent opportunities include a pre-bid conference held by the Washington State Department of Transportation on behalf of Washington State Ferries for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office issuing an RFP for independent medical evaluation services for pension-board disability determinations (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026); Collier County Board of County Commissioners soliciting pharmacy benefit management services (RFP 25-8414, originally due April 9, 2026); the City of Long Beach requesting surgical benefit carve-out proposals for employees enrolled in an Anthem PPO plan (HR26753, due October 7, 2026); the County of Santa Clara Health System establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary health professional staffing across thirteen clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026); and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issuing an RFI for specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth (071626BNM, due September 25, 2026). The geographic spread spans Washington, Arizona, California, Texas, and Florida, with no concentration in any single state. Given the absence of any opportunities for the orthopedic implant or tissue-substitute services the code nominally describes, this code shows no actionable recent activity for businesses in the implant or surgical-device space.
