UNSPSC 85682001: Replacement of hyoid bone with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of hyoid bone with nonautologous 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 0NRX4KZ

UNSPSC 85682001 Replacement of hyoid bone with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code's technical medical procedure designation does not match the work actually being solicited under it in current state and local opportunities.

The available state and local records tagged to this code reflect a mismatch between the code's definition and actual procurement practice. Recent opportunities posted under this code include independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits for government employee health plans (City of Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance for ferry system workers (Washington State Department of Transportation), specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing services (County of Santa Clara). None of these procurements involve hyoid bone replacement or the specific surgical procedure named in the code. This signals either systematic tagging error in the source jurisdictions' procurement systems or use of the code as a catchall for medical services outside its intended scope. Firms pursuing work in state and local medical services, healthcare staffing, occupational health, or benefits administration should verify code alignment directly in each solicitation notice rather than relying on UNSPSC 85682001 as a reliable discovery mechanism.
