UNSPSC 85695181: Replacement of left metacarpal with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left 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 0PRQ47Z

UNSPSC 85695181 Replacement of left metacarpal with autologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work actually being solicited under this classification by state and local issuers. Recent opportunities posted under this code involve occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability retirement determinations, surgical benefits administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and youth detention medical services — none of which align with orthopedic surgical procedures on metacarpal bones. The code appears to have been applied incorrectly to health services and benefits administration procurements rather than to specific surgical procedures.

Activity under this code spans multiple issuing bodies including city retirement offices, county health systems, state transportation departments, county juvenile probation departments, and county commissioners' procurement divisions across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) supporting disability benefit determinations for approximately 75 annual applications with a five-year maximum contract value of $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) with pre-bid conference held August 31, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQ for temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026) establishing a non-exclusive multiple-award qualified vendor pool with no guaranteed work volume. The code's nominal medical-procedure scope bears no resemblance to these health administration and staffing procurements, signaling potential classification misalignment rather than meaningful activity within the intended commodity category.
