UNSPSC 85701101: Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left acetabulum, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left acetabulum, 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 0QW50KZ

UNSPSC 85701101 Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left acetabulum, open approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—a specific orthopedic surgical procedure—does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this classification. The opportunities solicited under this code include independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing across ancillary clinical specialties. None of these activities involve the procurement of tissue substitutes or orthopedic revision surgery services. The issuing bodies span city retirement offices (Phoenix), municipal employee benefit programs (Long Beach), state transportation authorities (Washington State Department of Transportation), county health systems (Santa Clara County Health System), county juvenile probation departments (Harris County), and county employee benefits consortia (Collier County). This code shows little relevant recent activity aligned to its stated clinical scope.

The geographic spread of the recent opportunities includes Arizona, California, Washington State, and Florida. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP RTMRFP26001 for independent medical evaluation services (proposals due October 16, 2026), the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP 20260825 for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations (due October 9, 2026 with a pre-bid conference August 31, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara Health System's RFSQHHSFY270052 establishing a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing in ancillary clinical categories (due October 7, 2026). These opportunities evidence a misclassification at the UNSPSC code level—the code itself describes a specific surgical procedure, but the opportunities posted under it address health services administration, occupational health compliance, and clinical staffing rather than tissue-substitute procurement or operative orthopedic services.
