UNSPSC 85692214: Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left rib, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left rib, 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 0PP23KZ

UNSPSC 85692214 Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from left rib, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal medical procedure scope. The six recent opportunities tagged to this code span independent medical evaluations for public safety pension determinations, surgical and medical procedure carve-outs for employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry system workers, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management services, and temporary health professional staffing — none of which involve removal of tissue substitutes or percutaneous rib procedures. The code appears to be a classification mismatch in state and local procurement systems; the opportunities reflect administrative healthcare purchasing, employee benefits contracting, and clinical staffing, not the specific surgical procedure the code nominally describes.

The issuing bodies include city retirement offices (City of Phoenix), municipal procurement offices (City of Long Beach), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county juvenile justice agencies (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county human resources and benefits consortiums (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and county health systems (County of Santa Clara Health System). Geographic activity spans Arizona, California, Florida, Washington, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services due October 16, 2026, valued at $750,000 over five years; the City of Long Beach's RFP for surgical and medical procedure carve-outs for its Anthem PPO plan due October 7, 2026; and the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services due October 9, 2026. Given the mismatch between the code's procedure-specific definition and the diversity of healthcare administrative and staffing work actually being solicited, this code warrants review for proper reclassification in state and local procurement systems.
