This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left rib with autologous tissue substitute, open 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 0PR207Z

UNSPSC 85691960 Replacement of left rib with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code whose recent state and local procurement activity shows minimal alignment with its nominal surgical scope. The source records six recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code, none of which involve orthopedic or reconstructive surgical procedures. Instead, the tagged opportunities span occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Ferries), independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical benefit carve-out programs for employee health plans (City of Long Beach), specialty and emergency medical services for youth in custody (Harris County Juvenile Probation), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara Health System). The mismatch between the code's nominal description and the actual work being solicited suggests either systematic miscoding at the jurisdictional level or that this code does not represent active state and local procurement activity for the procedure it nominally describes.

Geographic activity spans multiple states—Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington—but the concentration reflects general health services and benefits administration procurement rather than surgical procedure procurement. Recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's October 16, 2026 RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations ($750,000 over five years), the City of Long Beach's October 7, 2026 RFP for surgical and medical procedure Centers of Excellence for employee health benefits, and the Washington State Department of Transportation's October 9, 2026 RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations. None of these opportunities involve procurement of the surgical procedure the code nominally describes. State and local procurement under this code does not currently reflect the orthopedic surgical scope the code name indicates.
