UNSPSC 85703756: Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from right tibia, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from right tibia, 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 0QPG3KZ

UNSPSC 85703756 Removal of nonautologous tissue substitute from right tibia, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal medical procedure scope. The recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code diverge significantly from the specific surgical intervention named: the solicitations are for occupational medical surveillance services, independent medical evaluation services for pension benefit determination, pharmacy benefit management, surgical care coordination through centers of excellence, temporary health professional staffing, and inpatient emergency care for detained youth. None of these solicitations address the removal of tissue substitutes or orthopedic surgical procedures on the tibia. The mismatch suggests that state and local procurement systems are applying this code to a broader family of healthcare services or administrative medical management activities rather than to the specific procedure the code nominates.

The issuing bodies in the tagged opportunities include a state department of transportation (Washington), a county board of commissioners (Collier County, Florida), a county health system (Santa Clara County), a county juvenile probation department (Harris County, Texas), and city government (Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, and Washington, with no clear concentration. Representative recent solicitations include the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services with proposals due October 9, 2026, and the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services with a $750,000 maximum contract value over five years and proposals due October 16, 2026. The code's tagging to healthcare administration and staffing services rather than orthopedic surgical intervention suggests either a data-quality issue in the state and local procurement taxonomy or a systematic misapplication of this Commodity code to related but distinct healthcare service families.
