UNSPSC 85694169: Replacement of left radius with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left radius with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0PRJ47Z

UNSPSC 85694169 (Replacement of left radius with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach) is a Commodity code that shows a fundamental mismatch between its nominal surgical procedure scope and the state and local contract opportunities posted under it. The recent solicitations tagged to this code are almost entirely unrelated to orthopedic surgery involving radius replacement or tissue substitutes — they instead cover occupational health surveillance, pension disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, specialty surgical carve-outs for employee benefits, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these activities align with the specific surgical intervention the code names. The code shows little relevant recent procurement activity in its stated domain.

The issuing bodies across the tagged opportunities span a broad geographic and jurisdictional base: a state transportation department (Washington State Department of Transportation), multiple counties (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County, Santa Clara County), and two cities (Phoenix and Long Beach), along with a county health system. A single opportunity — the City of Phoenix's independent medical evaluation services RFP due October 16, 2026 — centers on medical evaluation, record review, and physician examination coordination for public safety pension disability determinations, while the Washington State Ferries occupational medical surveillance RFP due October 9, 2026 requires occupational medicine-certified physicians for baseline and periodic examinations across 14 Washington locations. The Long Beach employee surgery carve-out RFP (due October 7, 2026) and Collier County pharmacy benefit management RFP (due April 9, 2026) both address employee benefits administration rather than direct clinical services. These opportunities reflect administrative and occupational health procurement rather than the orthopedic or reconstructive surgical services the UNSPSC code nominally describes. Vendors pursuing work under this code should confirm with issuing bodies whether the code assignment reflects actual procurement intent or represents a cataloging error.
