About UNSPSC 85683215

UNSPSC 85683215, Replacement of left occipital bone with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominally describes a highly specific surgical procedure on the skull; however, the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code do not align with that scope. Instead, the opportunities reflect procurement of occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out network management, pharmacy benefit administration, temporary health professional staffing, specialty and emergency medical services for detained youth, and related administrative health services. None of these represent the orthopedic or neurosurgical procedure the code nominally describes.

The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the source data or use of the code as a catch-all for general medical-services procurement within the jurisdictions' classification systems. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026; the Washington State Department of Transportation posted an RFQ for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026; Collier County posted an RFP for pharmacy benefit management services; and the County of Santa Clara Health System posted an RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories due October 7, 2026. Activity spans Arizona, Washington, Florida, and California. Given the disconnect between the code's stated scope and what is actually being solicited, this code warrants watchful skepticism — the procurement activity is real, but its classification here does not track the work being bought.
