UNSPSC 85682902: Replacement of left ethmoid bone with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left ethmoid 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 0NRG3JZ

UNSPSC 85682902 Replacement of left ethmoid bone with synthetic substitute, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local procurement activity posted under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code—independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical and medical procedure carve-out benefits, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—are administrative healthcare services, benefits management, and workforce staffing, not surgical implant procurement or replacement procedures. State and local governments do not appear to be soliciting the specific medical device or procedure named in the code's description.

The mismatch suggests either tagging error in the procurement platform or use of a misaligned UNSPSC classification by the issuing bodies. No recent opportunities reflect procurement of ethmoid bone implants or similar orthopedic or surgical devices. Vendors pursuing work under this code should verify the actual scope of work in each posted solicitation independently and should not rely on the code name to predict scope. The opportunities present show activity from city and county human resources and health systems (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, and Santa Clara County Health System) but none solicit the procedure or device this code nominally describes.
