UNSPSC 85682036: Replacement of left lacrimal bone with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left lacrimal bone with autologous 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 0NRJ47Z

UNSPSC 85682036 Replacement of left lacrimal bone with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure involving lacrimal bone replacement using autologous tissue and endoscopic technique. Recent state and local solicitations posted under this code do not reflect this scope; instead, they span independent medical evaluation services for disability benefit determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for transportation workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing. These opportunities concern medical service contracting, benefits administration, and staffing rather than surgical procedures or implants. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, municipal human resources departments, state transportation authorities, county juvenile justice departments, county benefits consortiums, and county health systems—none of which appear to be purchasing lacrimal bone replacement procedures or surgical implants under this code.

The geographic spread of recent activity encompasses Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Texas (Harris County), and Florida (Collier County), though the opportunities themselves operate in healthcare benefits and occupational health administration rather than surgical supplies or procedures. The mismatch between the code's clinical nomenclature and the actual work being solicited suggests either a cataloging error at the issuing jurisdictions or a fundamental misalignment between code taxonomy and procurement practice in this category. No representative recent opportunities genuinely reflect the code's stated scope of replacing left lacrimal bone with autologous tissue via percutaneous endoscopic approach.
