UNSPSC 85681270: Replacement of right lacrimal bone with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right lacrimal bone with synthetic 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 0NRH0JZ

UNSPSC 85681270 Replacement of right lacrimal bone with synthetic substitute, open approach is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not reflect orthopedic or reconstructive surgical supply purchasing. Instead, issuing bodies have tagged six recent opportunities under this code that involve occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, surgical care coordination, and emergency youth detention healthcare — none of which concern lacrimal bone prosthetics or surgical implants. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (a specific surgical procedure using a synthetic bone substitute) and the actual work being solicited suggests either systematic miscoding or that state and local procurement offices are using this Commodity code as a catch-all for healthcare services outside their standard taxonomy. The code shows no evidence of legitimate procurement activity in orthopedic or surgical implant supply markets.

The recent opportunities span three states and multiple issuing-body types: the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (Arizona), the City of Long Beach (California), the Washington State Department of Transportation ferries division, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department (Texas), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (California). Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services to support disability benefit determinations, due October 16, 2026, with a five-year term valued at $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services for ferry system employees across 14 locations, due October 9, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ (RFSQHHSFY270052) for a multi-category temporary health professional staffing pool, due October 7, 2026. Practitioners should verify whether their offerings align with these healthcare-services categories before bidding under this code; the UNSPSC classification appears unreliable for surgical implant or reconstructive supply sourcing.
