UNSPSC 85683233: Replacement of left frontal bone with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left frontal bone with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0NR247Z

UNSPSC 85683233 Replacement of left frontal bone with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) does not reflect the scope of work state and local governments are actually buying under this code. The recent solicitations tagged to this code address occupational medical surveillance, independent disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans, emergency and specialty medical services for youth in custody, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve cranial bone replacement or surgical reconstruction. The mismatch between the code's nominal clinical procedure scope and the diverse health-plan administration, employee wellness, and temporary staffing services in the recent opportunities indicates either miscoding in the source data or administrative misalignment in how state and local procurement offices are tagging health services. The code shows little relevant activity for firms specializing in orthopedic or reconstructive surgical services.

State and local governments are not currently soliciting under this code for the service it nominally describes. Recent opportunities span issuing bodies including city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal employee benefits departments (Long Beach), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice systems (Harris County), county health systems (Santa Clara), and county workforce health management (Collier County), but none of these solicitations involve the surgical procedure named in the code's title. Do not pursue opportunities under this code on the basis of the procedural taxonomy alone; verify actual scope in any RFP before committing resources.
