UNSPSC 85681602: Replacement of hyoid bone with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of hyoid bone with synthetic substitute, percutaneous 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 0NRX3JZ

UNSPSC 85681602 Replacement of hyoid bone with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes an orthopedic surgical procedure—replacement of a specific neck bone via a minimally invasive approach—yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluation services, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employee health plans. None of these solicitations involve hyoid bone replacement or related surgical implants; instead, they reflect administrative health services, benefits management, and staffing procurement at the state and local level.

The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county agencies (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara Health System), and city governments (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Recent opportunities posted in August and September 2026 include the Washington State Department of Transportation's occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026 (the central capability filter is licensure in occupational medicine); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's independent medical evaluation services RFP for disability determinations due October 16, 2026 with a $750,000 five-year contract value; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive temporary health professional staffing qualification vehicle due October 7, 2026. The code shows little recent activity aligned to its stated orthopedic surgical scope and does not support meaningful business development pursuit in state and local procurement at this time.
