UNSPSC 85703501: Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left fibula, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left fibula, 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 0QWK3KZ

UNSPSC 85703501 Revision of nonautologous tissue substitute in left fibula, percutaneous approach (Commodity) shows minimal alignment with the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code. The source contains six recent solicitations, five of which fall outside the scope of orthopedic tissue-substitute procedures: independent medical evaluation services for disability pension determinations, surgical benefit carve-out programs for government employee health plans, occupational medical surveillance for ferry workers, emergency and specialty healthcare services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management administration, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these opportunities involve orthopedic implant revision, tissue grafting, percutaneous fibula repair, or related surgical procedures. The single opportunity nominally related to surgery—the City of Long Beach's surgical procedure carve-out program—encompasses pre- and post-care coordination through Centers of Excellence networks for knee, hip, orthopedic, shoulder, spine, heart, weight loss, and oncology procedures, but does not specify procurement of nonautologous tissue substitutes or surgical implants themselves, and the focus is on benefit administration and care network coordination rather than device or material supply.

No recent state and local contract opportunities reflect procurement activity under this Commodity code's actual scope. The code appears to be a procedural or surgical classification that does not correspond to the goods and services state and local governments actively solicit, or the opportunities posted under this code number do not match the code's clinical definition. Practitioners should verify whether this code is correctly applied in state and local procurement databases or whether the relevant device and biomaterial supply opportunities are tagged under different UNSPSC classifications.
