This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from right carpal, 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 0PPM3KZ

UNSPSC 85695536 "Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from right carpal, percutaneous approach" is a Commodity code carrying a medical-procedure classification that does not align with the state and local contracting activity currently posted under it. The recent opportunities posted against this code span occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. None of these solicitations involve removal of tissue substitutes or orthopedic surgical procedures; the code's clinical scope and the actual procurement activity show no meaningful overlap. The issuing bodies include state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), county benefits administrations (Collier County, Phoenix), and municipal retirement offices (City of Phoenix).

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Washington, California, Arizona, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington ferry system locations, due October 9, 2026 (RFP format, pre-bid conference August 31, 2026); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services supporting disability pension determinations, due October 16, 2026, with a maximum five-year contract value of $750,000; the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation for a qualified vendor pool of temporary health professional staffing across multiple ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026; and Collier County's RFP for pharmacy benefit management services serving approximately 2,400 enrolled employees, with an initial three-year term effective January 1, 2026. The code shows little relevant recent procurement activity aligned to its stated scope; the mismatch between the code's clinical classification and the actual work being solicited suggests a coding or tagging error in the source data.
