UNSPSC 85695401: Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left carpal, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left carpal, open 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 0PWN0KZ

UNSPSC 85695401 "Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left carpal, open approach" is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure on a specific anatomical site, but the six recent opportunities posted under this code do not reflect surgical implant procurement or orthopedic tissue revision work. Instead, the opportunities span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent disability medical evaluations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency youth detention healthcare services — none of which involve procurement of tissue substitutes or surgical materials. The mismatch suggests either misclassification of opportunities or that the code does not reflect the actual buying pattern for this product line in state and local procurement.

The six opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies including Arizona state pension boards (City of Phoenix Retirement Office), California municipalities and counties (City of Long Beach, Collier County, County of Santa Clara), Washington state transportation (Washington State Department of Transportation), and Texas county juvenile services (Harris County Juvenile Probation Department). Geographic spread covers Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington. None of the recent solicitations — Phoenix's disability medical evaluation RFP (due October 16, 2026), Long Beach's surgical benefit carve-out RFP (due October 7, 2026), WSDOT's occupational medical surveillance RFP (due October 9, 2026), or others — target tissue substitutes, surgical implants, or tissue revision procedures. Without representative opportunities that actually align to the code's nominal scope, the code presents no actionable procurement signal for vendors pursuing orthopedic or surgical material supply contracts.
