UNSPSC 85673317: Supplement left wrist bursa and ligament with autologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left wrist bursa and ligament 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 0MU607Z

UNSPSC 85673317, Supplement left wrist bursa and ligament with autologous tissue substitute, open approach, is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment with state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities record. The UNSPSC code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—autologous tissue grafting to the left wrist bursa and ligament—but the six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 soliciting under this code are unrelated to surgical implants or orthopedic procedures; instead, they address occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health staffing, surgical care networks, and emergency youth detention services. The code does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually buying under the 85673317 tag.

The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the source data or a systematic divergence between the UNSPSC taxonomy and how issuing bodies are tagging health services contracts. The opportunities span diverse issuing bodies—the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance across 14 ferry terminals), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical record review and independent medical examinations), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (pharmacy benefit management), the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing qualification), the City of Long Beach (surgical procedure carve-out networks), and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth)—across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Geographic and issuing-body diversity does not validate relevance; the code and the actual procurement content remain disconnected. Bidders should verify UNSPSC classification accuracy with issuing bodies before developing response strategies.
