UNSPSC 85692119: Revision of autologous tissue substitute in sternum, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of autologous tissue substitute in sternum, 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 0PW037Z

UNSPSC 85692119 Revision of autologous tissue substitute in sternum, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose recent state and local activity does not align with its nominal scope. The code's title references a specific surgical procedure, yet the six recent opportunities posted between July and September 2026 address occupational health surveillance, disability medical record review, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical care networks for government employees, and emergency medical services for detained youth—none of which involve autologous tissue grafting or sternal revision. State and local procurement offices appear to have applied this code inconsistently or erroneously across diverse health services categories, suggesting either persistent classification drift or a mismatch between the code's technical definition and how jurisdictions use it in practice.

The issuing bodies span county health systems, municipal retirement boards, state transportation departments, and county human services agencies across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. The City of Phoenix Retirement Office posted an RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years); the Washington State Department of Transportation requested occupational medical surveillance (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary ancillary clinical staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Collier County in Florida and the City of Long Beach in California posted for pharmacy benefit management and surgical center of excellence networks respectively. Given the code's misalignment with actual procurement activity, pursuit should proceed with caution—the code title does not predict what work is actually being bought, and future opportunities may continue to diverge from sternal revision procedures.
