UNSPSC 85682840: Supplement left frontal bone with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left frontal bone with synthetic substitute, 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 0NU23JZ

The UNSPSC code 85682840 Supplement left frontal bone with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not show relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The five most recent opportunities tagged to this code — covering inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county correctional facility, pharmacy benefit management for a county employee health plan, virtual primary and urgent care services for a county workforce, peer support services for behavioral health peer workers, and a fire department medical director contract — are unrelated to surgical implantation of synthetic bone substitutes. These solicitations reflect healthcare administration, employee benefits management, and clinical services delivery, not the procurement of orthopedic implant materials or surgical supplies that the code nominally describes.

State and local purchasing offices appear to have misclassified these opportunities under a code designed for a specific surgical procedure and implant category. The code shows little or no genuine activity in orthopedic or surgical implant procurement at the state and local level based on recent published solicitations. Vendors in the bone-substitute or surgical-implant space should not pursue opportunities currently tagged to this code without direct contact with the issuing body to confirm the actual commodity or service being bought.
