UNSPSC 85692603: Revision of autologous tissue substitute in thoracic vertebra, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of autologous tissue substitute in thoracic vertebra, 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 0PW407Z

UNSPSC 85692603 Revision of autologous tissue substitute in thoracic vertebra, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with state and local government procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not reflect the surgical spinal procedure described in the code's nominal scope. Instead, the tagged solicitations cover independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefits carve-out programs for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for ferry system workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which involve autologous tissue grafting or vertebral procedures. The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in code assignment or that the code is rarely used for state and local procurement; no procurement activity directly supporting orthopedic revision procedures or spinal implant work appears in the recent opportunities block.

The issuing bodies represented span city procurement offices (Phoenix, Long Beach), a state transportation department (Washington), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County, Texas), a county benefits program (Collier County, Florida), and a county health system (Santa Clara, California). Geographic distribution of the unrelated opportunities includes Arizona, California, Texas, Florida, and Washington. Given the absence of solicitations actually matching the code's defined scope, this code does not present a meaningful pursuit opportunity in state and local contracting right now.
