UNSPSC 85694972: Replacement of right finger phalanx with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right finger phalanx with autologous tissue substitute, 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 0PRT37Z

UNSPSC 85694972 Replacement of right finger phalanx with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous approach (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity. The code is a highly specific orthopedic surgical procedure for digit reconstruction, yet the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not involve finger phalanx replacement or surgical reconstruction of digits. Instead, the tagged solicitations span occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Ferries), independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical benefits carve-out networks for municipal employees (City of Long Beach), specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County Health System). None of these solicitations request procurement, contracting, or referral services related to the surgical procedure the code nominally describes.

The mismatch between the code's surgical procedure scope and the actual state and local demand reflected in recent opportunities suggests either a coding error in the source data or that this Commodity code does not represent an active procurement category in state and local government contracting. No health system, county, or municipality in the source material is soliciting finger phalanx replacement procedures, surgical implant devices, or tissue substitute materials. Firms evaluating this code should treat it as inactive pending clarification of the underlying opportunity stream.
