UNSPSC 85695623: Replacement of left carpal with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of left carpal with nonautologous 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 0PRN4KZ

UNSPSC 85695623 Replacement of left carpal with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) does not reflect the work actually being solicited under this code in state and local procurement. Recent opportunities tagged with this code instead cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out administration, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, and emergency medical services for detained youth — none of which involve orthopedic surgical procedures or tissue replacement. The code's nominal scope appears to be a surgical procedure classification that does not align with the administrative and occupational health services state and local governments are currently procuring under this tag.

The recent opportunities span diverse issuing bodies including county health systems (Santa Clara, Harris County, Collier County), state transportation departments (Washington State Department of Transportation), city retirement offices (Phoenix), and municipal governments (Long Beach), with activity concentrated in California, Arizona, Washington, Texas, and Florida. Representative solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services for public safety pension disability determinations (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026, $750,000 over five years), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance across 14 Washington ferry locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification pool vehicle for temporary ancillary health professional staffing (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The mismatch between the code's surgical-procedure nomenclature and the health administration and occupational medicine services actually being procured suggests this code is either miscoded in the source material or represents a data classification error rather than a meaningful procurement category for business development purposes.
