UNSPSC 85694645: Supplement left metacarpal with autologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement left metacarpal with autologous tissue substitute, 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 0PUQ07Z

UNSPSC 85694645 Supplement left metacarpal with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code with no recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its nominal scope. The five most recent opportunities tagged to this code span inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management for county employees, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for behavioral health workers, and fire department medical direction — none of which involve orthopedic surgical procedures, metacarpal repair, or tissue substitution. The code appears to be a data-classification mismatch rather than a signal of active state or local buying in this service line.

The misalignment suggests that either the code was incorrectly assigned by issuing bodies in the underlying procurement records or that state and local health agencies are not sourcing orthopedic surgical services or tissue-substitute products through open competitive procurement under this specific UNSPSC designation at present. Business development professionals should verify whether relevant state health departments, county health systems, or hospital consortia are procuring these services under alternative codes or through group purchasing organization (GPO) agreements before committing resources to pursue activity under this code.
