UNSPSC 85692629 Removal of autologous tissue substitute from thoracic vertebra, open approach is a Commodity code that represents a specific surgical procedure code, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code bear no substantive relationship to the code's nominal scope. The solicitations identified—independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, juvenile detention healthcare, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing—span occupational health, benefits administration, and clinical staffing but do not involve thoracic vertebral procedures or autologous tissue removal. This mismatch suggests either a data classification error in the underlying procurement system or a wholesale divergence between the code assignment and the actual work being bought.

No state and local contract opportunities under this code are relevant to the surgical procedure named in the code's taxonomy. The posting activity recorded above—spanning Arizona (City of Phoenix), California (City of Long Beach, County of Santa Clara), Washington (Washington State Department of Transportation), Florida (Collier County), and Texas (Harris County)—reflects healthcare administration, staffing, and benefits management procurement, not surgical procedure services. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated definition.
