UNSPSC 85682525: Replacement of left parietal bone with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left parietal bone with nonautologous tissue 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 0NR40KZ

UNSPSC 85682525 Replacement of left parietal bone with nonautologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure involving cranial bone replacement, but the recent opportunities posted under this code do not match that scope. Instead, the solicitations retrieved under the code cover occupational medical surveillance services, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, temporary clinical staffing, surgical center-of-excellence carve-out programs, and emergency healthcare services for youth in custody — none of which involve orthopedic or neurosurgical implantation. The mismatch suggests either systematic miscoding in the issuing bodies' procurement systems or a data retrieval error that conflates this code with broader healthcare service categories.

The six opportunities posted between July and September 2026 originate from diverse issuing bodies: a city retirement office (Phoenix), municipal health systems (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), state transportation departments (Washington), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), and county government (Collier County). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. None of these solicitations align with surgical implant procurement or the specific surgical procedure the code nominally describes. Given the consistent mismatch between the code definition and actual recent solicitation content, pursue opportunities under this code only after verifying the issuing body's actual procurement intent through direct contact or detailed RFP review.
