UNSPSC 85695148: Supplement right metacarpal with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right metacarpal with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic 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 0PUP47Z

UNSPSC 85695148 Supplement right metacarpal with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure on the right hand—does not align with the recent opportunities posted under this classification. The most-recent-state-local-contract-opportunities block contains six solicitations, none of which relate to metacarpal supplementation or hand surgery; instead, they cover independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations (Phoenix), surgical carve-out benefit programs for employee health plans (Long Beach), occupational medical surveillance (Washington State Ferries), emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County Health System). These opportunities span medical administration, benefits management, occupational health compliance, and clinical staffing—all materially distinct from the procedure named in the code.

The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the administrative and staffing services actually being procured suggests either miscoding by the issuing bodies or that this Commodity code is not currently used by state and local agencies for relevant purchasing activity. State and local governments procure surgical procedures as components of employee health benefits, occupational health programs, and detention-facility medical care, but they do not typically tag such acquisitions with procedure-specific UNSPSC codes; they more commonly use broader health-services or benefits-administration codes. No recent opportunities reflect the hand-surgery scope this code nominally describes. Recommend skip or monitoring only if pursuing health-benefits-administration or medical-services bundling opportunities more broadly.
