UNSPSC 85681659: Removal of synthetic substitute from facial bone, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of synthetic substitute from facial bone, 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 0NPW3JZ

UNSPSC 85681659 Removal of synthetic substitute from facial bone, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its clinical scope. The six recent opportunities posted under this code between July and September 2026—spanning independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs, occupational health surveillance, youth detention medical services, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—address administrative healthcare procurement, benefits management, and general clinical staffing rather than the specific orthopedic surgical procedure named in the code. State and local procurement offices appear to have tagged these opportunities with this code as a catch-all classification rather than as a reflection of actual demand for facial bone reconstruction surgery or related services.

No representative recent opportunities match the code's nominal scope. Buyers include a city retirement office (Phoenix), municipalities (Long Beach), a state department of transportation (Washington), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County), a county health system (Collier County), and a regional health authority (Santa Clara County), but none are soliciting facial bone surgical removal services. The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Washington, Texas, and Florida, but this reflects the mislabeling of healthcare procurement across diverse jurisdictions rather than concentrated demand under the code. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for purposes of orthopedic surgical services contracting and investigate whether a more precise UNSPSC classification exists for the healthcare benefits and administrative services these jurisdictions are actually buying.
