UNSPSC 85692008: Removal of autologous tissue substitute from left scapula, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of autologous tissue substitute from left scapula, 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 0PP607Z

UNSPSC 85692008 Removal of autologous tissue substitute from left scapula, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local contract opportunities identified in the recent procurement record. The code nominally describes a surgical procedure code (CPT-equivalent medical service taxonomy), yet the actual solicitations posted under this code classify and procure occupational health services, pension and disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgical networks, temporary health professional staffing, and detention-facility medical services — none of which involve removal of tissue substitutes from specific anatomical sites.

The mismatch between the code's ostensible scope and actual state and local buying activity suggests either a cataloging error in how opportunities were tagged to this code, or that the code itself is used inconsistently across jurisdictions. State and local procurement offices soliciting genuinely under this code show no recent activity; instead, the record reflects a broader healthcare services portfolio purchased by Arizona retirement systems, California municipalities, Washington State agencies, Texas county juvenile systems, and Florida county health consortia. Absent documented opportunities that actually match the tissue-removal procedure this code nominally describes, the code shows little relevant recent activity for business development professionals focused on surgical procedure or implant work in the state and local space.
