UNSPSC 85704616: Supplement right patella with autologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement right patella with autologous tissue substitute, 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 0QUD07Z

UNSPSC 85704616 Supplement right patella with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that describes a specific orthopedic surgical procedure, but the recent state and local contracting activity tagged under this code bears no meaningful relationship to the code's nominal scope. The five most recent opportunities record inmate medical and pharmacy services for a county prison, pharmacy benefit management for a county health plan, virtual primary and urgent care services for county employees, peer support services for mental health workers, and medical director services for a fire department—none of which involve patellar supplementation or surgical tissue substitution. The code appears to be a misclassification artifact in the state and local procurement databases rather than a category under which governments actively solicit surgical supplies, orthopedic devices, or tissue-substitute materials.

No recent state and local solicitations under this code target the orthopedic surgical or medical device work the code's name suggests. The opportunities posted between February and May 2026 span issuing bodies including the Columbus Consolidated Government (Georgia), Collier County (Florida), Monroe County (Florida), San Mateo County (California), and the Santa Monica Fire Department (California), but all relate to healthcare staffing, benefit administration, or clinical services delivery rather than surgical implants or tissue substitutes. Practitioners evaluating this code for business development should treat it as inactive for state and local procurement purposes at present and monitor alternative codes that may better capture orthopedic surgical supply, prosthetic device, or medical implant procurement.
