UNSPSC 85695533, Removal of autologous tissue substitute from left carpal, percutaneous approach, is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local opportunities. The code nominal scope describes a specific surgical procedure, but the recent opportunities posted under this code are procurement services unrelated to autologous tissue removal—including independent medical evaluation services, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management administration, temporary health professional staffing, and surgical Center of Excellence network management. The mismatch between the code's clinical procedure name and the healthcare administrative and staffing services being actually purchased indicates that the code sees little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated taxonomy scope.

The recent opportunities in this code span state departments and counties across multiple regions: the Washington State Department of Transportation (medical surveillance for ferry workers), the City of Phoenix Retirement Office (disability medical evaluations), Collier County, Florida (pharmacy benefit management), Harris County, Texas (specialty and emergency services for youth in custody), the City of Long Beach, California (surgical procedure carve-out networks), and the County of Santa Clara, California (temporary health professional staffing). The geographic distribution is broad—Washington, Arizona, Texas, Florida, and California—but the work being tagged under this code reflects procurement and administrative services in occupational health, employee benefits management, and temporary staffing, not surgical procedures on tissue. Business development professionals evaluating this code should verify category alignment with their service offerings before pursuing opportunities posted under it.
