UNSPSC 85702736: Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from right metatarsal, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from right metatarsal, 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 0QPN3KZ

UNSPSC 85702736 "Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from right metatarsal, percutaneous approach" is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The code appears intended to classify a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the six recent state and local opportunities tagged to it encompass independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, surgical benefit carve-out program management for municipal employees, occupational medical surveillance for state ferry workers, emergency and specialty medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve the removal of tissue substitutes from metatarsal bones or any comparable surgical procedure at the commodity level. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being purchased suggests either a systematic tagging error in the state and local procurement system or a misalignment between code hierarchies and the way issuing bodies classify health services contracting.

The opportunities themselves span diverse issuing bodies—municipal retirement offices, city workforce benefits programs, state transportation agencies, county juvenile detention systems, county workforce benefits consortia, and county health systems—across Arizona, California, Florida, and Washington, with response dates concentrated in September through October 2026. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) structured as a five-year, $750,000 contract; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry system locations (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026); and the County of Santa Clara Health System's non-exclusive multiple-award qualification vehicle for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). Because none of these activities align with the code's stated orthopedic surgical procedure scope, this code does not represent a viable category for business development targeting in state and local procurement.
