UNSPSC 85695034: Removal of autologous tissue substitute from right metacarpal, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of autologous tissue substitute from right metacarpal, 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 0PPP37Z

UNSPSC 85695034 Removal of autologous tissue substitute from right metacarpal, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—does not align with the recent opportunities posted under this UNSPSC designation. The six state and local solicitations tagged to this code span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability benefit determinations, surgical benefit carve-outs, specialty pharmacy management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth. None of these activities involve the removal of autologous tissue substitutes or percutaneous procedures on metacarpal bones. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the source data or that this code is rarely or incorrectly applied in state and local procurement systems. Business development professionals should verify the actual UNSPSC category assignments through the issuing jurisdictions' procurement offices before allocating resources to this code, as the posted opportunities do not support meaningful pursuit under the nominal commodity definition.
