UNSPSC 85682823 Supplement left occipital bone with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure involving bone grafting, yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluations for disability determinations, surgical carve-out benefits management, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these solicitations involve the procedure the code names. State and local procurement offices appear to have tagged health care administration and staffing services broadly under this anatomically specific procedure code, suggesting either classification error in source data or mission creep in the code's application at the jurisdictional level. The issuing bodies include county health systems, county commissioners, city retirement offices, state departments of transportation, county juvenile probation departments, and city procurement offices—a mix spanning administrative, clinical, and detention settings.

Geographic activity centers on Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (Long Beach and Santa Clara County), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County). Recent opportunities posted include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026), the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical benefit carve-out management (HR26753, due October 7, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026 with pre-bid on August 31), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity when evaluated against its stated procedure scope and does not serve as a reliable classifier for current state and local health care procurement.
