UNSPSC 85694916: Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in right thumb phalanx, percutaneous 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, percutaneous 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 0PWR3KZ

UNSPSC 85694916, Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in right thumb phalanx, percutaneous approach (Commodity), shows minimal alignment between its code title—which names a specific surgical procedure on thumb tissue—and the recent state and local solicitations actually posted under it. The code's recent opportunities span occupational health surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-outs, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention medical services. These solicitations do not involve thumb phalanx procedures or tissue revision work; the code appears to be capturing general healthcare procurement activity that state and local procurement offices have tagged with this Commodity code despite substantive mismatch. Issuing bodies include city retirement offices (Phoenix), county health systems (Santa Clara), county human services departments (Harris County Juvenile Probation), county commissioners' offices (Collier County), state transportation agencies (Washington State Department of Transportation), and city employee benefits offices (Long Beach). No single issuing body repeats in the recent block.

Activity spreads across Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no dominant geographic concentration. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP (RTMRFP26001) for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations, due October 16, 2026, with a maximum five-year contract value of $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP (RFP20260825) for occupational medical surveillance services at 14 ferry locations statewide, due October 9, 2026 with a two-year term and optional five-year extensions; the City of Long Beach's RFP (HR26753) for surgical benefit carve-out networks covering Centers of Excellence, due October 7, 2026, targeted for April 2027 go-live; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFQ (RFSQHHSFY270052) for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026, as a non-exclusive multiple-award qualified vendor pool with no guaranteed volume. The code's taxonomy designation does not match procurement substance, suggesting either systematic data-entry error or intentional use of a surgical-procedure code as a catch-all for health services. Firms pursuing work under this code should verify issuing bodies' actual scope during pre-RFP research rather than relying on the code title alone.
