UNSPSC 85694616: Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in right thumb phalanx, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in right thumb phalanx, 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 0PWR0KZ

UNSPSC 85694616 Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in right thumb phalanx, open approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code's nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure on thumb bone tissue — does not match the state and local medical services being solicited. Recent opportunities tagged under this code involve occupational medical surveillance, disability medical record reviews, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit carve-outs, and youth detention healthcare services. None of these align with orthopedic surgical procedures or tissue substitute revision work.

The mismatch between the code name and actual procurement activity suggests either a data-classification error in the source material or that this Commodity code does not represent active state and local buying. State and local agencies posting medical services solicitations — including the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (independent medical evaluations), the Washington State Department of Transportation (occupational medical surveillance), the City of Long Beach (surgery benefit administration), and the County of Santa Clara Health System (temporary health professional staffing) — are purchasing administrative health services, staffing, and benefit management rather than orthopedic surgical procedures themselves. Without evidence of recent opportunities genuinely seeking thumb phalanx tissue substitution services or related surgical supplies, this code does not present a current procurement signal for medical device or surgical-supply vendors.
